BAY RIDGE & VERRAZANO BRIDGE

Day full of water and another bridge to the collection. Verrazano-Narrows Bridge connects the New York City boroughs of Staten Island and Brooklyn. The bridge is named for the Florentine explorer Giovanni da Verrazzano, who became the first European to enter New York Harbor and the Hudson River.

This double-decked suspension giant is doing really colossal impression. Is over 4km in length, and its massive towers can be seen throughout a good part of the NY metropolitan area. I love bridges, water and these types of views. Unfortunately Verrazano bridge is only open to car traffic.

The whole Bay Ridge neighborhood looks like a small town, which we can see in American movies. Low buildings, American flags everywhere and no tourists … well, except me;) Time seemed to flow a little slower here.
