Join us on the River Rose, a Mississippi-style paddle wheeler, as we cruise along the Rockland shore of the Hudson River to the Tappan Zee Bridge.

Participants will view the current bridge construction from vantage points which are as near to the bridge as LEGALLY & SAFELY possible. Narration and commentary will be provided by historians from the HSRC as well as from leaders of the current bridge project (Tappan Zee Constructors). These guides will also be available to answer any questions guests have about the past, present and future of the Tappan Zee Bridge.
