You simply don’t see a lot of drawbridge signs in New York, but there are a number of them in Gowanus, where there are five drawbridges over the Canal, all of which open and close from time to time. This signs is on Ninth Street as one approaches the Ninth Street Bridge under the Smith-9th Subway stop. It is very banged up and also very high off the ground, which can only lead one to the conclusion of truck damage.

you cannot imagine how many times i’ve been stuck at the hamilton avenue bridge. statistically, it’s impossible.
everyone i know knows that if they get a text that says, “f;ing hamilton ave bridge” that i’m stuck, again.
