Brooklyn Bridge by Tom Shropshire


The Brooklyn Bridge

This iconoc New York landmark, the Brooklyn Bridge, ranks as one of the greatest engineering feats of the 19th century.? The impressive bridge spans the East River between Brooklyn and Manhattan. The bridge officially became a national monument in 1964. Part of the history of the bridge is the number of times con men sold gullible tourists the bridge, convincing them that they could set up their own toll booth and make a fortune. I would never do such a thing. If you believe that ...I've got a bridge I'd like to sell you.





Brooklyn Bridge Cruciform

The cruciform shape is a popular abstract design element. This view of the Brooklyn Bridge embodies strong horizontal and vertical lines to create dynamic tension and hopefully, a strong composition.
