The bridge, spanning the Hudson River, is depicted with its iconic steel truss design, offering a clear view of its structural elegance. The photograph appears to be taken from a vantage point on the river, possibly from a boat or nearby shore, illustrating the expansive view across the water.The Poughkeepsie Bridge, also known as the Walkway Over the Hudson, was originally a railroad bridge when it opened in 1889.
