Subway train on the Brooklyn Bridge in Manhattan, New York...05/1974.

    This is actually the Manhattan Bridge, not the Brooklyn Bridge, although it too bridges Manhattan and Brooklyn over the East River.
  • The U.S. National Archives said:
    Thanks again, TVL1970! You are correct. This is the Manhattan Bridge, not the Brooklyn Bridge. We will work to update our descriptive data on this image. Jerry (U.S. National Archives)
  • Raven Cat said:
    Yes, the Manhattan Bridge....and I'll be riding this train back home in about an hour!
  • Paul Fernandez said:
    This is definitely the Manhattan Bridge! I have been on that bridge and on the Brooklyn Bridge too many times not to know the difference.
  • rdgrahamiii said:
    Ten years ago, there was a message saying you were going to update the description. Ten years is a long time not to have it done! Ron

    I think this is looking down Washington Street near the intersection with Water Street.

    Thanks for the modern day view, Eric in SF! Did you know the National Archives is currently running a contest for photos that mash-up the old and new images? Check out our challenge and look at some of the photos already submitted in our Flickr group. Hope to see your submissions soon! Mary U.S. National Archives

    Very cool. I don't live in NYC so it'll be a bit hard for me to participate in this particular contest, unless I'm not understanding it correctly. But the entries in the group pool were way cool!
  • The U.S. National Archives said:
    We welcome all creative interpretations of the old and the new together, and any photo from our collections is eligible for the contest. One of the suggestions in our History Happens Here set could be perfect for where you are now! Mary U.S. National Archives
