In the prologue of “Brooklyn Bridge Fact & Symbol”, written by Alan Tracgtunberg he discusses how to view the Brooklyn Bridge from different perspectives or angles. The Brooklyn Bridge is pretty big and long so spotting it shouldn’t be too hard, just make sure it’s the Brooklyn Bridge and not the Manhattan Bridge. He explains that you can view the bridge from Chinatown and Brooklyn Heights. He says it depends what angle your viewing it from because each angle represents something different. As well as if your walking on it your going to get a different perspective of the bridge. You don’t expereience the Brooklyn Bridge unless you actually see it and experience what it has to offer.
