    Niche NYC story.

    There’s a covered, elevated walkway between the Manhattan Criminal Courts Building and the Manhattan House of Detention. Prisoners go back and forth between the holding cells in the courthouse and the Department of Corrections cells next door. The name of the bridge used to be The Bernie Kerik Bridge. Then Kerik, who was in line to be Secretary of Homeland Defense got arrested.

    I long to see Rudy walk that bridge someday.
