Just like the Sears tower's real name has "Sears" in it. Not that lame "Willis" nonsense masquerading as a real name.

The true fans will always call it by its colloquial name.

Perhaps. But unlike the other bridge & tunnel renamings in NY, this is actually a different bridge. At least with the Sears/Willis Tower, it's the same building.

The Tappan Zee will come down. It would have been nice to keep the old name.
