The Triborough Bridge, the span of 3 bridges that connect Manhattan, Queens, and The Bronx, is now officially called the Robert F. Kennedy Bridge. City Room reports that New York State has used about $4 million in state funds to make new signs for the bridge, even though they don’t expect most New Yorkers to call the bridges by its new name. Meanwhile New York State is facing a $1.5 billion budget deficit

This is the first time the Triborough Bridge has been renamed since going into operation in 1936.
