Ooops, Times loses a bridge


An article last Sunday about the Queensboro Bridge, which is celebrating its 100th anniversary, referred incorrectly to the Hell Gate Bridge, designed by the same men who designed the Queensboro, Henry Hornbostel and Gustav Lindenthal. The Hell Gate links the Bronx and Queens by rail, the lines passing over Manhattan (via Randalls and Wards Islands); the bridge does not connect the Bronx and Manhattan.
