I lived about 200 yards from this bridge since BEFORE it was a bridge early 1960’s, right across from the polo fields on the west side of Bloomingdale. Never been a suicide there, no girl jumped in front of a train, used to party under the bridge for years. scared the shit out of many people over the years though
