Vintage Photograph Shows Dapper Men and Elegant Women Crossing Brooklyn Bridge in 1910

The Brooklyn Bridge was built in 1883 to connect the City of New York with the City of Brooklyn by spanning the East River. It was the first steel-wire suspension bridge constructed, and the longest suspension bridge in the world for several years.

In this vintage photograph from around 1910, see the dapper gentlemen and elegantly dressed women crossing the bridge by foot.
