Event Details

Built in an age of steam power and horse-drawn wagons, the Brooklyn Bridge stands as a monument to human engineering and industry. Learn the story of the greatest engineering work of its time and of the men and women, their triumphs and tragedies, the towers of monolithic stone and spun webs of steel to bring to life Washington Roebling's magnum opus. Learn what it really took to make the dream a reality.
