Photo Of The Day: November 19, 2008

Today New York City's Triborough Bridge will officially be renamed the Robert F. Kennedy Bridge. The Triborough Bridge is a complex of 3 spans that connect the three boroughs of Manhattan, the Bronx and Queens -- hence the name "Tri-Borough." The naming is in recognition of Robert Kennedy's representation of New York in the United States Senate, and is being held a day before what would have been Robert Kennedy's 83rd birthday. Here's how the newly named Robert F. Kennedy Bridge looks, taken from the East River in Manhattan. For more pictures of bridges, visit Paul Scharff Photography.com.
