House with bridge view

            This house is located in the Beechhurst neighborhood of Queens, New York City and faces Long Island Sound with a view of the Throgs Neck Bridge.  The bridge, which is designated as part of Interstate 278, links the boroughs of Queens and The Bronx.  This section of the Long Island Sound is also considered to be part of the upper East River that separates the two boroughs.

The Throgs Neck Bridge was completed in 1961 and was designed by Othmar Ammann.  It was built by the Triborough Bridge and Tunnel Authority and is still operated by its successor agency, MTA Bridges and Tunnels, a unit of the Metropolitan Transportation Authority.  It is a vehicular toll bridge.
