The Bridges

We took a tour with Aubrey of the Adams St complex at Bethel. We also went up to the top of Towers residence where we were able to stay for two nights and the views are absolutely spectacular. You can see Brookyn Bridge and Manhattan Bridge span across to Manhattan Island.



The view. Wow.



Adams St complex.

We went for a walk around DUMBO (Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass) and got some nice views of the two bridges connecting Brooklyn to Manhattan. It took about 20-30 minutes to walk across to the other side of the Brooklyn Bridge to Manhattan. Watch the bicycyles. One of them nearly collected a couple of walkers while we were there.



Manhattan Bridge from Brooklyn Heights. If you like chocolate you should stop in at the Jacques Torres chocolate shop near here. Its kinda like Max Brenner. Chocoholics: need I say any more?

It's interesting seeing NYC through a first time visitor's eyes. Perhaps it will moderate my somewhat jaded perspective. We're enjoying the posts and photos.
