Attend the Premiere of Bear Mountain Bridge: the First 100 Years, on Sunday, November 24, 2024 at 3PM.
Bear Mountain Bridge: the First 100 Years, celebrates the creation, the construction, and most importantly, the operation, care and maintenance of this iconic structure that has enabled the Bear Mountain Bridge to be ready to enter its next hundred years of service to the Hudson Valley.
Set in the historic Hudson Highlands, this documentary, produced by Historic Bridges of the Hudson Valley with SDS Imagery and Tesseract Studios, tells the story of the very first vehicular crossing of the Hudson River, south of Albany, complete with interviews of those who have cared for this bridge, share the history of the area and speak to the innovations in bridge engineering pioneered in its construction and much more. Our documentary contains many historic photos, videos, and stunning aerial film footage of what many believe is one of the most beautiful bridges in our area.
Following the film, enjoy a Q&A with a panel of Bear Mountain Bridge experts who will provide even more information about this incredible structure! Our documentary premiere is a wonderful way to celebrate the centennial of the Bear Mountain Bridge, which opened to the public on Thanksgiving Day in 1924.
