I went over the New Tappan Zee Bridge twice and the experience was breathtaking and smooth if only the named stayed the same. I understand that Mario Cuomo was governor but the original bridge existed way before his time as they plan to tear this bridge down so why should the name be struck out of existence as if it never existed? Why do we need to tear down history instead of add to it. I’ve come to a solution that should please both sides the bridge would be named the The New Tappan Zee Bridge when entering Rockland County and the Mario Cuomo Bridge when departing. This way history can be preserved as well as added to it as well.
