This stunning print captures the iconic Hell Gate Bridge in Queens, New York during the mid 20th Century. The east tower of the bridge looms over the turbulent waters of Hell Gate, separating Astoria from Wards Island. In the distance, you can see a glimpse of the Triborough Bridge standing tall against the skyline.
The Hell Gate Bridge, opened in 1916, is a marvel of engineering and still stands as one of the strongest bridges in the world. Used exclusively for railroad traffic, its steel arch span cuts an impressive figure against the backdrop of Long Island.
As you gaze at this historic photograph by Frederic Lewis, you can almost feel the weight of history that this bridge carries. It has connected communities and facilitated transportation for decades, serving as a vital link between different parts of New York City.
Situated in a park on Long Island, this image perfectly captures both the grandeur of the bridge and its integration into its natural surroundings. The bench under a tree in foreground adds to sense tranquility amidst all this industrial strength depicted in this powerful image.
