Transforming Rockland County

produced, directed, and edited by Brian Crowder and Annmarie Lanesey

Built during a time of great optimism in America, the Tappan Zee Bridge led

Rockland County into the era of the automobile. Along with the New York

State Thruway, the bridge enabled Rockland County to modernize its roads

and support a highway system that would tie it to the rest of the country.

Cutting-edge building techniques anchored the Tappan Zee Bridge across

the Hudson and connected two shores where only ferries had once made

the crossing. Come along on this ride of progress and discover the remarkable

story of the cantilever bridge that transformed Rockland County!
