The '''East Borough Bridge(s)''' is a series of three bridge and a highway intersection in [[Liberty City in GTA IV Era|Liberty City]] in [[Grand Theft Auto IV]], based off of the [[wp:Robert F. Kennedy Bridge|Triborough Bridge]] (officially known as the Robert F. Kennedy Bridge). It connects the boroughs of [[Algonquin]], [[Dukes]] and [[Bohan]], as well as the small [[Charge Island]]. | |||

The bridge elevates above much of [[Charge Island]] and has a [[Tollbooths|toll plaza]] for drivers driving in or out of Dukes and Charge Island. There are two ways of using the bridge without paying: Traveling between Algonquin and Bohan (in either direction) and traveling between Dukes and Charge Island (in either direction). Using the bridge to make a different journey will result in a toll charge of $5. The East Borough Bridge is one of the three bridges that connect to Bohan; along with the [[Northwood Heights Bridge]] and [[Dukes Bay Bridge]]. The bridge is essentially three bridges as one, each span adjoined to Dukes, Algonquin and Bohan. | The bridge elevates above much of [[Charge Island]] and has a [[Tollbooths|toll plaza]] for drivers driving in or out of Dukes and Charge Island.

Being based on the [[wp:Robert F. Kennedy Bridge|Triborough Bridge]], the East Borough Bridge's three sections are intended to emulate those of Triborough Bridge's; the eastern span is based on the East River suspension bridge, the western span imitates the Harlem River lift bridge (although the East Borough Bridge counterpart lifting mechanism is non-functional), while the northern span is intended to be similar, but not strictly adherent, to the Bronx Kill crossing. | Being based on the [[wp:Robert F.
