Brooklyn Bridge Park- A Photo Blog

by Mark Giarrusso

Manhattan Bridge

Last time I took you for a walk across the Brooklyn Bridge, from Manhattan to Brooklyn. After exiting the walkway on the bridge you come to Brooklyn Bridge Park. One of the most unique public spaces in all of NYC. It pairs the unique, old school Brooklyn charm with sweeping views of the Manhattan skyline. In that way exact way it captures both the soul and body of New York City at large. I always try to present my work thusly. The gorgeous physical architecture being the body and the people who inhabit those structures being the soul. Brooklyn Bridge Park is a fantastic way to see both.

A Walk Across The Brooklyn Bridge- Photo Journal

by Mark Giarrusso

Timeless View

If you are a New Yorker, you are obligated to walk The Brooklyn Bridge.  Yes, it could be touristy just for the fact alone that the pedestrian walkway is ALWAYS mobbed with people from all over the world, every nice day from April until October.   It’s like going to the top of the Empire State Building or now the Freedom Tower.  If the Queensboro Bridge  has the market on quirkiness then the Brooklyn Bridge could be considered a wizened old man who has seen New York grow to be the capital of the world.  It IS touristy on the surface but dig a little deeper and it’s pure New York.

New York City Photography: The Queensboro Bridge

by Mark Giarrusso

Roosevelt Cable Car

The Queensboro Bridge is one of the most iconic crossings in the world. It spans the East River along side the world famous Roosevelt Island Cable Car. The bridge draws thousands of tourists and commuters per day. It also is one of the only toll-free crossings in all of New York City.
One of the best parts of the bridge is that it is available to pedestrians. Along the walkway is a chain link fence where many people leave locks with messages on them. Others are blank, leaving only the ones that have placed them to know their true meaning. It’s definitely something you have to look for but priceless when you find them.
