This guy was in front of me on his cell phone while I was walking over the Brooklyn Bridge. I couldn’t resist the mystery of the moment. :) Yes, I solarized/edited it for a future world/past world sort of feeling. :)

The Brooklyn Bridge, one of the oldest suspension bridges in the United States, stretches 5,989 feet (1825 m) over the East River connecting the New York City boroughs of Manhattan and Brooklyn. On completion, it was the largest suspension bridge in the world and 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. At various times, the bridge has carried horse-drawn and trolley traffic; at present, it has six lanes for motor vehicles, with a separate walkway along the centerline for pdestrians and bicycles. Due to the roadway’s height (11 feet posted) and weight (6,000 lb posted) restrictions, commercial vehicles and buses are prohibited from using this bridge. The two inside traffic lanes once carried elevated trains of the BMT from Brooklyn points to a terminal at Park Row. Streetcars ran on what are now the two center lanes (shared with other traffic) until the elevated lines stopped using the bridge in 1944, when they moved to the protected center tracks. In 1950 the streetcars also stopped running, and the bridge was rebuilt to carry six lanes of automobile traffic. 1994 Brooklyn Bridge shooting: / On March 1, 1994, Lebanese-born Rashid Baz opened fire on a van carrying members of the Chabad-Lubavitch Orthodox Jewish Movement, striking 16 year old student Ari Halberstam and three others traveling on the bridge. Halberstam died five days later from his wounds. Baz was apparently acting out of revenge for the Hebron massacre of 29 Muslims by Baruch Goldstein that had taken place days earlier on February 25, 1994. Baz was convicted of murder and sentenced to a 141 year prison term. After initially classifying the murder as one committed out of road rage, the Justice Department reclassified the case in 2000 as a terrorist attack. The entrance ramp to the bridge on the Manhattan side was named the Ari Halberstam Memorial Ramp in memory of the victim. The 2003 Plot: / In 2003, truck driver Iyman Faris was sentenced to about 20 years in prison for providing material support to al-Qaeda, after an earlier plot to destroy the bridge by cutting through its support wires with blowtorches was cancelled. 2006 bunker discovery / In 2006, a Cold War era bunker was found by city workers near the East River shoreline of Manhattan’s Lower East Side. The bunker, hidden within the masonry anchorage, still contains the emergency supplies that were being stored for a potential nuclear attack by the Soviet Union. 125th Anniversary celebrations: / On May 24, 2008, festivities were held over the entire Memorial Day week-end to celebrate the 125th anniversary of the opening of the Brooklyn Bridge.

Beautiful view of a stone footbridge that carries hikers across a lovely forest stream, and connects two circular stretches of trail on either side. Both trails follow back along the stream banks, then up to the valley rims and eventually head down toward the bridge again. In this view distant hikers are exploring the stream itself .

This past week during the holiday season, I visited Niagara Falls, New York… on a very cold, very windy, very overcast day… it was about 26 degrees out and much of the overlooks were closed for the season due to all the ice and snow… I played around a little bit with a Raw image of this shot taken from the American Falls overlook…
