Everyone else comes to the Bridge to take a photo and move on. Not us - we'll understand the huge effort that went in to getting the Bridge built, the lives lost and made, the scandals and celebrations. It's such a beautiful bridge but even better when you understand how it came to be.
In many ways the story of New York is the story of the Brooklyn Bridge. Almost nothing you see in the City existed before the Bridge - we'll use the Bridge as a way to understand the City that rose around it - the buildings, the other bridges, the transportation system, the people.
And then there are all the fun stories that span 140 years. We'll have a jam packed 90 minutes exploring the bridge, the city, and their history.
We'll spend 30 minutes walking around the base of the bridge, admiring the best views of it, and discussing the amazing story of how it was built
New York City, United States
Then we'll walk over the bridge, getting a chance to examine the architecture up close. Walking over the Bridge is an amazing experience and we'll talk about how much and how little this process has changed in the last 140 years, finishing the story of its construction and its long life

We'll finish up on the Manhattan side of the Bridge inside the lovely City Hall Park where we can see the alternative side of the Bridge.
