The web of cables and stays of the Brooklyn Bridge

Name: The web of cables and stays of the Brooklyn Bridge
Uploaded: 2026-08-31T03:10:45.900Z
Duration: 24 s
Description: Rising steeply against a pale sky, the vertical suspenders and the diagonal stays running out from the tower cross one another in a dense, fan-like web of wire rope; at the lower left the edge of the stone tower appears. The pattern of vertical and diagonal ropes is characteristic of the Brooklyn Bridge, which Roebling stiffened with stays against the wind.
