The Broadway Bridge in New York City is a "lift" type drawbridge over the Harlem River Ship Canal between Inwood on Manhattan Island and Marble Hill, also originally part of the island, but separated from it by the ship canal; it is still part of the borough of Manhattan. The bridge is named because it carries Broadway, which is designated as US 9 here. The bridge also carries the IRT Broadway – Seventh Avenue Line (the 1 train).above the road. Immediately to the north of the bridge along this line is the Marble Hill – 225th Street station.
