It doesn't cost anything to look at it. No one's going to charge you money because the bridge is within your field of vision (how would they even know that you were someplace where the bridge can be seen)?

It doesn't cost anything to cross the bridge, either. There is no toll for vehicles or pedestrians.

If you're not already in the neighborhood, then it will cost you money to take the subway, the bus or a cab there. If you're somewhere outside New York City, then you'll have to buy a train, plane or bus ticket, or lots of gasoline, to get there. So yes, in that sense, it costs money to go see the Brooklyn Bridge.

It connects the two halves of a very large city.
Sydney Harbour Bridge joined the city of Sydney (at Dawes Point) to the North Shore (at Milsons Point) obviating the need to travel by ferry or make a substantial trip around the harbour foreshores towards Parramatta and back. It has an arch shaped structure. Due to these reasons it is important to Sydney .

The Brooklyn Bridge clears the water below it by 135 feet (41 m) at mid-span.

They are about 5 2/3 (five and two-thirds) miles apart as the crow flies (meaning, if you were to draw an imaginary straight line between them on the map).

The Brooklyn Bridge connects the borough of Manhattan and the borough of Brooklyn.

It took 600 people and 14 years to build the Brooklyn Bridge.

The Brooklyn Bridge cost $15.1 million to build, $3.8 million of which was to purchase land for approaches and the remainder going toward construction. This was more than twice the original cost estimate of $7 million.

Before the Brooklyn Bridge was built, the only way to travel from Brooklyn to Manhattan and back was by ferry. When the bridge was built, people could finally travel quickly and easily, and in large numbers, between the two boroughs.

People could now live in Brooklyn, and commute into Manhattan to work, which wasn't really feasible before, since the ferry system wasn't equipped to carry large numbers of commuters at once.

The Brooklyn Bridge helped unite the city, not just physically, but socially as well. In fact, in 1898, just five years after the bridge was completed, the five boroughs united to form modern-day New York City.

Yes the Brooklyn bridge does use triangulation. If you want proof look at a really big picture or use this link below. Zoom in and you can see the triangulation at the sides.

The Brooklyn Bridge is made of steel. The Bessemer process made steel affordable.

The main problem was that the Chief Engineers kept becoming incapacitated! The first one died, and the second was bedridden throughout most of the bridge's construction. The bridge might not ever have been built, had it not been for Emily Warren Roebling.

John Roebling was originally the Chief Engineer, but he died not long after groundbreaking, when a collapse on the site severely injured his foot, which led to a tetanus infection and then death. So his son, Washington Roebling, became the Chief Engineer.

Unfortunately, Washington Roebling was also injured on the job, early into the construction. He got a bad case of decompression sickness (aka "the bends" or "cassion disease") while surveying the underwater cassions. He survived, but he was bedridden for the rest of the bridge's construction.

His wife, Emily Warren Roebling, was required to speak to the workmen on his behalf, and run messages between them. She had studied engineering and higher math, and so was able to provide crucial assistance in the remaining 11 years until the bridge's completion. She was also the first person to cross the bridge when it was completed.

However, history books typically ignore her contribution, and list only John and Washington Roebling as the Chief Engineers.

No, they are not the same bridge. Three bridges connect Lower Manhattan to Brooklyn: the Brooklyn Bridge, Manhattan Bridge and Williamsburg Bridge.

The Brooklyn Bridge is the furthest south, the Manhattan Bridge is in the middle, and the Williamsburg Bridge is the furthest north.

The Brooklyn Bridge was originally called the "New York and Brooklyn Bridge," which is perhaps where some of the confusion comes from. But when the bridge opened in 1883, New York City consisted mostly of just Manhattan. It was not until 15 years later, in 1898, that the five boroughs -- Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, The Bronx and Staten Island -- united to form modern-day New York City.

Before then, Brooklyn was its own city (the other three consisted of small towns and farmland), so the bridge was called the "New York and Brooklyn Bridge" because it united the city of New York and the city of Brooklyn.

Of course, today Brooklyn is part of New York City, so calling it the "New York and Brooklyn Bridge" is redundant.

The first person to cross the Brooklyn Bridge was Emily Warren Roebling, the wife of the Chief Engineer, Washington Roebling. She was also critical to its construction.

Her father-in-law, Washington Roebling's father John Roebling, was originally the Chief Engineer, but he died not long after groundbreaking, when a collapse on the site crushed his toes, requiring amputation, which led to a deadly tetanus infection. So Washington Roebling inherited his father's job.

The younger Roebling also inherited some of his father's bad luck: he got a bad case of decompression sickness (also known as "cassion disease," or, more commonly, "the bends") while surveying the underwater cassions. Since he was bedridden during most of the bridge's construction, his wife Emily was required to speak to the workman on his behalf, and run messages between them. She had studied engineering and higher math, and so was able to provide crucial assistance over the 11 years until the bridge's completion.

John Augustus Roebling.

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.

I have no idea!! I'm trying to find out too!
