Yeah the newspapers here and even TV can't decide what they want to call the incident.

Yes they towed the RJ off the taxiway so some of the up close pictures are from where it was parked. Not sure which pic you're referring to with a bridge in the background. From the airport its only the masspike extension which is mostly underwater and only bridges are just overpass ramps at the airport entrance and can't be seen since that is all on the other side of Term-A. Google map has a decent aerial satellite view of the airport.
