Brooklyn Bridge of New York

The Brooklyn Bridge crosses over the East River connecting the big city of Manhattan to the neighboring suburbs of Brooklyn. It was first called the Brooklyn Bridge when some one wrote the editor of the Brooklyn Daily Eagle in 1867. It wasn't even built yet. It was completed in 1883 and it was the first steel wire suspension bridge. Until 1903, it was the longest suspension bridge ever built. They finally added the bridge to the National Historic Landmark description in 1964.

The great bridge has seen the forms of transportation wholly transform for more than a hundred years and was always updated to accommodated the changes. The bridge originally was traveled by horse back, horse drawn carriage, and trolley traffic. Over the years the trains and trolleys along with the horses were replaced by motor vehicles and walkways. Today, the bridge has six lanes devoted to auto traffic and a walkway for bicycles and pedestrians. The bridge has some height and weight restrictions so it is on open to large market trucks or buses.
