Brooklyn Bridge
The Brooklyn Bridge connects the boroughs of Manhattan and Brooklyn in New York City. It is one of the oldest suspension bridges in the United States. Construction started in January 1870 and completed in May of 1883.
It was the longest suspension bridge in the world from its opening until 1903, and it was the first steel-wire suspension bridge.
Originally referred to as the New York and Brooklyn Bridge, it was dubbed the Brooklyn Bridge in an 1867 letter to the editor of the Brooklyn Daily Eagle, and formally so named by the city government in 1915. Since its opening, it has become an iconic part of the New York skyline. It was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1964.
