Building the Future: A Rare Look at the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge Under Construction
This stunning historical photo captures the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge—one of New York’s greatest engineering marvels—during its construction in the early 1960s.
Stretching across the Narrows to connect Staten Island and Brooklyn, the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge remains the longest suspension bridge in the United States to this day. This image shows not only the incomplete bridge deck but also the massive approach ramps being built to handle future generations of New York traffic.
Beyond just concrete and steel, this project symbolizes a bold era of American infrastructure growth—something we desperately need again today. Vision, planning, and pride shaped this city, and it’s time to bring that spirit back.
