The Marine Parkway–Gil Hodges Memorial Bridge is a vertical-lift bridge in New York City, New York, that crosses Rockaway Inlet. The bridge, which opened on July 3, 1937, connects the Rockaway Peninsula in Queens, with Flatbush Avenue to Floyd Bennett Field, Belt Parkway, and the Marine Park neighborhood in Brooklyn. The bridge is designated as New York State Route 901B, an unsigned reference route.
The center span is 540 feet long and is normally 55 feet above the water but can be lifted to a height of 150 feet above water level. With its distinctive twin towers , the bridge has become an iconic landmark and symbol of the Rockaways.
