Williamsburg Bridge

Often overlooked in favor of the Brooklyn Bridge, the Williamsburg Bridge is a pleasant place to enjoy a view of the island of Manhattan or Brooklyn. It's not great for photos because it's surrounded by fences, but you can wander over the East River and enjoy the area. It was the longest suspension bridge in the world at one time ...

Located west of the Brooklyn Bridge, the Williamsburg Bridge, in the district of the same name, allows the bravest to reach Manhattan by foot or bike if they do not have a car and at night offers one of the best views over the island.
