As I mentioned (I think now 425 times), I have written hundreds of articles on NYC. While NYC will always be special to us, Everybody Loves Sammy is about animals & people from all over the world now. Nonetheless for THROWBACK THURSDAY, here is a little fun NYC tidbit.

The Brooklyn Bridge is one on biggest attractions in all of NY. Crossing over the East River, it connects Manhattan and Brooklyn. It was constructed during the period of 1869 – 1883. It’s around 1.13 miles long, or about 6000 feet. At the time it was built, the two masonry towers standing 275 feet tall, were among the tallest landmarks in all of New York. Whether you live in NY or you are visiting, it’s got something for everyone. People can bike, walk, jog and drive across the bridge. The views of the downtown Manhattan Skyline are breathtaking. Nearby is the Brooklyn Bridge Park, DUMBO & Lower Manhattan. In 1964, The Bridge had been deemed a National Monument.
Located :Manhattan entrance is near City Hall at Centre Street or Tillary and Adams Street in Brooklyn. [/pullquote]
