Back to the city? Take the Third Avenue Bridge.

New York, New York. If you can make it here...you'll probably have to pay a toll. Or will you??? Whether you're driving down for a day visit to the best city on earth from someplace up north, or if you're returning to the best city on earth after a much needed relaxing getaway upstate or Connecticut, or a ski vacay in Vermont - fear not. You don't have to shell out that extra $6 on the Triboro - excuse me - The Robert F. Kennedy Bridge. I know it may sound like a small sum, but a roundtrip bridge crossing will run you 12 bucks. And if you're really fabulous, then you're making that great weekend trip every weekend. That's 52 trips x 12. That's $624 a year. Keep that money in your pocket, honey. Take the Third Avenue Bridge. It's free. It gets you to Manhattan, and feeds directly to the FDR. It's a win-win situation.


And no, you don't spend any more in gas by taking the third ave bridge. Actually, quite the contrary. I rarely encounter traffic over this little gem of a bridge. It ma ynot be as pretty as some other glorious, expensive bridges. Boo hoo. Build a bridge and get over it!
