Guinea Gangplank 

Slang name for the Verrazano-Narrows bridge connecting Brooklyn with Staten Island. The name was coined by pre-bridge State Island residents who resented the large influx of people into their borough after the bridge was built. There was a large Italian-American influx from Brooklyn along with other nationalities as the island was built up after the bridge went into service back in 1964.
All these guinea gangplankers have ruined what used to be a nice peaceful island.
