Originally built in 1874 but the original wooden bridge was replaced with stone in 1896 because it could not withstand the weather.
It can be seen in Sex and the City, Gossip Girl, The Devil Wears Prada, and Home Alone 2: Lost in New York.
One of my favorite bridges where you can almost always find ducks.
In Salinger's The Catcher in the Rye Holden Caulfield ponders where do the ducks go during the winter. No matter when I've been to the Gapstow Bridge, be it the day after the December 26, 2010 Blizzard or St. Patrick's Day, there have always been ducks in Central Park.
