The Tri-Borough Bridge, Grand Central Parkway, Brooklyn-Queens Expressway,
Queens Mid-Town Tunnel, and Long Island Expressway are among the many
projects developed by urban planner Robert Moses. These projects made
our community accessible to the automobile, but at the cost of dislocating
thousands.
