The real place
The Manhattan Bridge opened in 1909 and carries subway trains, cars, cyclists and pedestrians between Brooklyn and Lower Manhattan. The block of Washington Street at Water Street, where the bridge tower appears between old warehouses with the Empire State Building visible through its arch, is one of the most photographed spots in New York.
Visiting
Come early on a weekday morning to have the street without crowds. York Street station on the F line is a five-minute walk away, and Brooklyn Bridge Park and the Brooklyn Bridge from the Empire State map are a few blocks along the waterfront.
