The Brooklyn Bridge is a cable suspension bridge that was completed in 1883. It still stands today on the east side of lower Manhattan, connecting it with Brooklyn.
It was remarkable at its time, and heralded in many new suspension bridges to span across many American waterways.
Soon the Brooklyn Bridge enabled the transportation of 33 million persons a year, and that was before the arrival of automobiles!
