Verrazano-Narrows Bridge spelling mistake

The New York state Senate has unanimously passed a bill that would correct the spelling of a bridge that has been wrong for over 50 years. New York City's Verrazano-Narrows Bridge is spelled with one "Z." It should have two "Z's" for Italian explorer Giovanni da Verrazzano, who discovered New York Harbor in 1524. The Staten Island Advance reports a Senate bill aimed at fixing the spelling passed 61-0 on Wednesday.
