Brooklyn Bridge History Walk Returns August 30

Brooklyn Bridge Park will offer a free history walk Sunday, August 30, from 10:00 to 11:30 a.m. The program begins at the Pier 1 Granite Prospect with an introduction to the Roebling family and the bridge's engineering, then continues toward the bridge's first tower. Registration is required. The route includes an uphill walk of about seven blocks, a small staircase, and sections without shade, so residents should consider the accessibility information before signing up and contact the park with accommodation questions.
