Walkway Talks: Fire On The Bridge – 50 Years Later
Friday, May 17, 2024 02:30 PM - 03:30 PM
Walkway Over the Hudson – East Gate Plaza (Poughkeepsie), This "Fire on the Bridge" presentation looks at the origins of the Poughkeepsie-Highland Railroad Bridge and continues exploring its history until the fire of May 8th, 1974. We will venture to share the "Fire on the Bridge" experience through the eyes of some of the firefighters who attended the fire and locals who were at thescene. Without these historical events, perhaps we would not have our beautiful Walkway Over the Hudson. This event is free to attend and open to all.
