Henry Hudson Exit Ramp at 72nd Street to be Closed

The New York City Department of Transportation today announced that the Henry Hudson Parkway exit ramp at West 72nd Street will be permanently closed on Sunday, July 8, 2007. The ramp is being closed to accommodate construction to extend Riverside Boulevard between West 71st and West 72nd Streets. The new roadway will provide an additional north-south corridor, serving a new residential development, and will allow north-bound traffic on Riverside Boulevard to access the Henry Hudson Parkway at 72nd Street.
