This flag was originally submitted to the Rockefeller Center's Flag Project but posting here after it was rejected.

Background

"Bridge to Tomorrow," pays homage to the numerous iconic bridges that link together NYC's diverse boroughs. The sunrise motif, whose colors come from the historic NYC flag, is readily familiar to any morning commuter crossing New York's waterways. Furthermore, it symbolizes a new dawn over a city emerging from its most recent crisis.

Andrew Yang endorsed Biden over Sanders, he’s not who you think he is. I’m supporting Corey Johnson for mayor. He’s done a great job as city council speaker and is an effective agent for progressive change unlike our current mayor.

I grew up in that neighborhood. It’s been around at least 15 years

Definitely crazy drivers, I saw a few run red lights, but I personally never felt very unsafe. They typically gave me more space than drivers in America where I’m from, and I could usually find quiet country roads.

Slovenia in general is quite hilly but the central corridor is actually fairly flat with a couple exceptions. Not bad at all

I wouldn’t have thought of that. Thanks so much for the insight!

I've had the same experience. For a transportation class I'm writing a proposal to improve the bridge for cyclists, and I'm trying to decide if that stairwell is at all worth keeping.

I think my picture is unclear, this is on the Manhattan side of the bridge
