Bank Rock Bridge, Oak Bridge or Cabinet Bridge - Built in 1860 by Calvert Vaux

Wood and steel beam pedestrian bridge.

Carries a park path over Bank Rock Bay, on the northern edge of The Lake around West 78th Street. 

The original Oak Bridge featured cast iron balustrades and yellow pine floorboards. Having lapsed into disrepair, it was replaced by the unadorned, purely functional Bank Rock Bridge in 1982.

Since what goes around comes around, in 2007, the Bank Rock Bridge was removed during a remodeling of Bank Rock Bay, and replaced with a replica of the original Oak Bridge.
