New York City
Large and majestic suspension bridges such as the Brooklyn connect NYC`s
five boroughs, as Manhattan, Brooklyn/Queens and Staten Island are separated
from the mainland.
Only the Bronx is part of the mainland. The Brooklyn Bridge was designed
with two levels, the upper for pedestrians and bikers, and lower for vehicular
traffic.
It spans over the East River frames the Empire State building and midtown
skyscrapers. It`s a fantastic feeling to walk over the bridge during sunrise
looking at Manhattans skyline like writer Walt Whitman, who constituted
a walk over the bridge to be the best and effective medicine he ever relished
for his soul.
