It has been reported that the Opening Ceremony for the High Bridge will be held on June 9, 2015 at 10:30am, there will be a ribbon cutting ceremony at the center of the bridge with many public officials attending to an RSVP event. Many details have not been provided and there will be no general announcement of the details to the public at large. This report has been corroborated by two independent sources including an announcement last night June 2, 2015, at a regularly scheduled Community Board 12 Parks and Cultural Affairs meeting, and on a report based upon an inquiry of the same date to the Parks and Recreation Department. More information will be added here as it becomes available.
