  • Sheridan Expressway

sheridan_map_1.jpgThe Sheridan Expressway is a short, 1.25 mile, highway that links the Cross Bronx Expressway with the Bruckner Expressway. Designed by Robert Moses, con struction began in 1958 and in 1962 the $9.5 million project was finally opened. Named for Moses’ political ally, Arthur V. Sheridan, the Sheridan Expressway is currently considered to be of great harm to the South Bronx community, as Sustainable South Bronx argues that it has led to divestment from the area and public health problems.
