Manhattan and Jersey City.

1902, working from both directions. McAdoo’s men were forced to blast when they ran into an unexpected ledge of rock, but
with this obstacle surmounted. the two headings met in 1904 and McAdoo donned oilskins to become the Hudson’s first
underwater bank - to - bank pedestrian. World' s Work magazine proudly reported in 1906 that New York could now be
