My dad and his friends called it the 59th St Bridge and that is the term that caught on with me - I have never called it the Queensboro in conversation.

For example, to this day I tell cab drivers - "take the upper level of the 59th St bridge", etc. I'm a few years older than you and I will never change :)

I wonder if a poll is taken what percentage of people call it the 59th St Bridge vs what percentage calls it the Queensboro. I would assume a large percentage do use the term "59th St"...
