Construction began in early January of 1870 (although some sources say late December of 1869), and it opened on May 24, 1883.
From 1945 to 1969, it was a very long procedure.
The Brooklyn Bridge TV series ended on April 6, 1993.

I'm assuming you're talking about the Brooklyn Bridge. There are three bridges that connect Brooklyn to Lower Manhattan. From south to north, they are: The Brooklyn Bridge, The Manhattan Bridge and the Williamsburg Bridge.You can remember them (and the order they are in from south to north) very easily, as when you put the first letter of each together, it becomes a popular kind of car, the BMW: Brooklyn, Manhattan, Williamburg.Anyway, to answer your question, the Brooklyn Bridge traverses the East River at City Hall on the Manhattan side, and the Brooklyn Heights and Vinegar Hill neighborhoods on the Brooklyn side.The Bridge cuts through the north end of Brooklyn Heights and the south end of Vinegar Hill. Since neighborhoods in New York City do not have precise boundaries, it's difficult to pinpoint exactly which neighborhood of the two the Bridge starts in.
The Brooklyn Bridge is not an island. As the name suggests, The Brooklyn Bridge is a bridge. New York City is made up of five boroughs: Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, The Bronx and Staten Island. Manhattan is an island. Brooklyn, along with Queens, is part of the island known as Long Island. Brooklyn and Queens take up the western end of Long Island. The Brooklyn Bridge connects the borough of Brooklyn to the borough of Manhattan. It transverses the East River at Lower Manhattan on the Manhattan side, and somewhere between the Brooklyn Heights and Vinegar Hill neighborhoods on the Brooklyn side.

Much of your question depends on whether you're driving or walking, where you start on the Brooklyn Bridge and where you end up in Central Park. If I walked from the Manhattan side of the foot of the Brooklyn Bridge to the corner of 5th Avenue and 59th Street, I'd walk about six miles.

The Brooklyn Bridge was the longest suspension bridge in the world from its opening until 1903, the first steel-wire suspension bridge, and the first bridge to connect Manhattan to the mainland.
It straddles the River Thames between north and south London.
