About

The Williamsburg Bridge is a suspension bridge in New York City across the East River connecting the Lower East Side of Manhattan at Delancey Street with the Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn at Broadway near the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway. Originally known as the East River Bridge, the Williamsburg Bridge was completed in 1903 and, at 7,308 feet long, was the longest suspension bridge span in the world until 1924. Leffert L. Buck was the bridge's chief engineer.
