When it comes to New York, everything from its architecture and food to the art scene and nature is top of the line—and that also happens to be the case with its bridges. Here are five stunning bridges that will make you fall in love with the Big Apple all over again.
Brooklyn Bridge
A visit to NYC is incomplete if you don’t cross this iconic bridge built in 1883, which connects two of the city’s most iconic boroughs—Manhattan and Brooklyn.
Manhattan Bridge
Speaking of iconic bridges connecting these two neighborhoods, Manhattan Bridge serves the same purpose. Make sure to check out Brooklyn’s Dumbo area to get some of the best views of this breathtaking bridge.
George Washington Bridge
This double-decked suspension bridge spans the Hudson River and it was built in 1931 to allow an easy connection between Manhattan and New Jersey.
Robert F. Kennedy Bridge
Another NYC bridge named after an American president, this bridge system is also known as Triborough Bridge because it does a great job connecting three of New York’s boroughs—Manhattan, Queens, and the Bronx.
Queensboro Bridge
Officially known as Ed Koch Queensboro Bridge, this cantilever bridge connects the borough of Queens with Manhattan’s Upper East Side, while also passing over Roosevelt Island.
