Bild und Text von The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey

The Goethals Bridge spans the Arthur Kill linking Elizabeth, New Jersey with the Howland Hook area of Staten Island, New York. The Goethals Bridge is a memorial to Major General George W. Goethals, builder of the Panama Canal and the first consulting engineer of the Port Authority. The Goethals Bridge and the Outerbridge Crossing, which are similar in design, were the first facilities constructed by the Port Authority. The 135-foot channel clearance of the Goethals Bridge permits passage of deep-sea vessels through the Arthur Kill.
