Brooklyn Bridge is the longest and most famous bridge in new york, which is located in the north of Nanjie Harbor and connects Manhattan and Brooklyn. This bridge was designed by John A. Rovlin in 1869, and Rovlin was killed in the survey. Later, his son, Washington, inherited his father's legacy and learned advanced technology from Europe. The bridge was completed in 1883. The project of this bridge took 16 years and invested 25 million dollars. However, in the process of building this bridge, besides John A. Rovlin, 20 construction workers were killed. The signboard on the bridge tower is used to mourn them. You can't walk along Wood Road from Brooklyn at sunset. You can enjoy the high-rise buildings and beautiful street scenes in Manhattan, which are the highlights of new york tourism. Fireworks are set off here on July 4th every year.
