On the Island side theres an old fort,a short distance to the mouth of the river a side street ends and there's 2 garages I was told was for road salt,there's an open lot in front of the garages fronting the Atlantic.Cool fun fact,there was always rumors that at one time there was a huge cave at the mouth,directly underneath the bridge,that once held cannon and ammunition to stop enemy ships from entering the river during the Revolutionary War and the Civil War,but was considered obsolete by the time the Civil War came along.There was never any evidence of a cave there so it was dismissed,then came Hurricane Sandy and it was exposed.When things were slow I would walk over into the cave,no evidence of anything ever having been there now but was pretty neat thinking about all the history there. And yeah,Danny,we had to drive over it every morning and every night as we were staying in Brooklyn and me,coming from Michigan,had an eye opening experience driving in that traffic.And that was in a Ford pickup,can't imagine what that would be like in a semi.

I wonder what it looks like on the Bridge... Here is what I see...

River Burch,is that the fort in photographs 4 and 5?

Photograph 1 sure brings back memories.I used the camera on my cell phone to take a ton of pictures,alot of them looking down into the fort from the street above and behind it.Then my phone was destroyed and there went all my pict's.!Thank you for sharing these pictures.Yeah,it seems to me a couple local guys I got to know said something about underground tunnels......
