The bridge you are approaching is painted in a distinctive, custom hue known as Pulaski Red. This specific color is one of only seven standard shades maintained by the New York City Department of Transportation for its infrastructure. The deep crimson choice stands out against the industrial backdrop of Newtown Creek and provides a recognizable marker for those traveling between Greenpoint in Brooklyn and Long Island City in Queens.
