Crossing over

As much as its residents like to act a world apart, New York City is inescapably connected to New Jersey.  But that connection isn't easy for pedestrians or cyclists.  Jersey City's bike enthusiasts, Bike JC, have created a competition for bridge proposals that help make this idea seem a little more tangible.  Since it encourages fanciful ideas more than buildable bridges, our students might not find the November deadline so hard to meet.  Details are online at: http://hudsonriverbridge.com/
