New Digs and Beautiful Bridge in Rochester, NY

The Frederick Douglass–Susan B. Anthony Memorial Bridge (called the Freddie-Sue Bridge by some Rochester residents^[1] and known as the Troup–Howell Bridge until July 13, 2007) is a triple steel arch bridge carrying Interstate 490 (I-490) over the Genesee River and New York State Route 383 (NY 383, named Exchange Boulevard) in downtown Rochester, New York. The bridge, officially completed on June 18, 2007, replaced a 50-year old multi-girder bridge situated in the same location.

Several new restaurants have been built along the Genesee River, in the area known as Corn Hill; where views of the bridge and water offer a peaceful ambiance while dining.  Tony D’s allows you to be seated outside on their terrace and watch boats such as the Mary Jemison which offers day and evening public cruises along river and serves lunch and dinner. (Reservations for Mary Jemison 585 662 5748 or www.samandmary.org (Tony D’s 288 Exchange Blvd, 585 340 6200.)
