For far more than twenty years, a leaky pipe on 33rd Street beneath the Hell Gate Bridge viaduct strategy submerged a lot more than a hundred square feet of heavily-trafficked sidewalk below a festering cesspool of standing water. Astoria Scum River, as it was called, stretched the complete width of the sidewalk, and as winter approached, the river iced over and became particularly hazardous to cross.

Astoria Scum River Bridge was constructed to offer you Astorians an chance to safely cross this hazard. The unauthorized bridge was a gift to the pedestrians of Astoria in the absence of profitable municipal efforts to ameliorate the difficulty.

The bridge was produced at zero price entirely from recycled supplies: an old perform bench identified on the curb, rescued screws from a disassembled desk, and a metal plate from an expired electrical component. It was installed and devoted on December 30th, 2009.

On January 25th, 2010, Astoria Scum River Bridge was the topic of a commendation from the office of NYC Council Member Peter F. Vallone, Jr., accompanied by a pledge to perform with Amtrak to re-route Astoria Scum River off the sidewalk.

Two days later, Amtrak workers began construction operate. Astoria Scum River was swiftly routed off the sidewalk, and inside a couple months, custom-produced grates have been installed to complete the project. The bridge, no longer necessary, was de-installed on March 20th, 2010 and returned to the curb whence it came.

Astoria Scum River Bridge is an unauthorized city improvement by Jason Eppink and Posterchild.

For far more than twenty years, a leaky pipe on 33rd Street beneath the Hell Gate Bridge viaduct approach submerged much more than a hundred square feet of heavily-trafficked sidewalk below a festering cesspool of standing water. Astoria Scum River, as it was named, stretched the whole width of the sidewalk, and as winter approached, the river iced over and became especially hazardous to cross.

Astoria Scum River Bridge was constructed to supply Astorians an opportunity to safely cross this hazard. The unauthorized bridge was a gift to the pedestrians of Astoria in the absence of productive municipal efforts to ameliorate the dilemma.

The bridge was made at zero expense entirely from recycled supplies: an old perform bench discovered on the curb, rescued screws from a disassembled desk, and a metal plate from an expired electrical component. It was installed and dedicated on December 30th, 2009.

On January 25th, 2010, Astoria Scum River Bridge was the topic of a commendation from the workplace of NYC Council Member Peter F. Vallone, Jr., accompanied by a pledge to work with Amtrak to re-route Astoria Scum River off the sidewalk.

Two days later, Amtrak workers began building perform. Astoria Scum River was speedily routed off the sidewalk, and within a couple months, custom-made grates have been installed to complete the project. The bridge, no longer required, was de-installed on March 20th, 2010 and returned to the curb whence it came.
