Facts
In 1894, P.T. Barnum, 'the greatest showman' was tasked by the city to prove how sturdy the bridge was. So he did what all great showmen would have done and marched 21 elephants across it.
The building of the Brooklyn Bridge was a victory for the early feminists. After chief engineer Washington Augustus Roebling, developed decompression sickness, his wife Emily Warren Roebling became the driving force behind the bridge's completion. She later became a pioneer of gender equality, publishing essays and earning a degree in law.
DUMBO stands for Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass.
