The name plate of the Kosciuszko Bridge
On the riveted girders of a steel truss a rectangular cast plate bears the words Kosciuszko Bridge in raised letters, flanked on each side by a round medallion with a crowned eagle, the arms of Poland. The bridge over Newtown Creek between Brooklyn and Queens, opened in 1939, was named for Tadeusz Kościuszko, the Polish officer who fought in the American Revolution; Polish immigrants lived in large numbers in nearby Greenpoint.
