Henry Hudson Parkway Live Cam

The Henry Hudson Parkway is a scenic roadway in New York City that stretches from West 72nd Street in Manhattan to the New York State line, where it becomes the Saw Mill River Parkway. The parkway was named after the English explorer Henry Hudson, who explored the area around New York Harbor in the early 17th century.

The idea for the Henry Hudson Parkway was first proposed in the 1920s by the urban planner Robert Moses. Moses envisioned a network of parkways and highways throughout New York City that would alleviate traffic congestion and provide scenic drives for residents and visitors. The Henry Hudson Parkway was one of the first parkways built as part of Moses' plan.
