I never realized it was once the longest Suspension Span in the world back in '26 when it opened.
There is a cool section of the book that shows Elevated railroad stations built into the anchorages but never used. I scanned the photos of that section below.
The first scan is of an invitation to the opening from my collection.
The book has a B&W scan of a copy of the same with the guest's name blanked out. Mine once belonged to Rev crane you can google him on the net.
I have a book from B&N for the bridges of NY city. I will have to put it upanother day.
