MANHATTAN BRIDGE
This magnificent suspension bridge and its blue-grey steel piers connect Manhattan to Brooklyn, as does its famous neighbour Brooklyn Bridge. Built between 1901 and 1912, it starts from the Lower East Side boundary with Chinatown, to connect the DUMBO district to Brooklyn, on the other side of the East River. You can cross it on foot or by bike, it is much less crowded than the Brooklyn Bridge, but the untimely passage of the subway makes the walk rather difficult! The Manhattan Bridge was immortalized on the poster of the film Il était une fois en Amérique (1984).
