The Great Bridge, The Epic Story of the Building of the Brooklyn Bridge

I would rather be the man who bought the Brooklyn Bridge than the man who sold it

People are so helpful. People will stop what they're doing to show you something, to walk with you through a section of the town, or explain how a suspension bridge really works.

We still don't have the parking lots that we used to have, like the one near the Brooklyn Bridge.

Build a bridge and get the heck over it!

The visitors, they question you-they like to know what's that building, where's Brooklyn, which way's Jersey. They observe the view. That's why it's called an observatory.
