so the brooklyn bridge was the beginning of the linking of manhattan and brooklyn and it led to the further growth of brooklyn, and i believe that it was 1898 to brooklyn became part of greater new york so it is absolutely true that the brooklyn bridge played a crucial role in that process. anyone else? when was the first car on the bridge? >> the bridge had to be adjusted for cars. it's had quite a few adjustments over the years. the main one was in late 1940s, early 1950s done by an engineer called steinman who strengthened, if you look at photographs of the bridge for that time, there is a very beautiful photograph of the brooklyn bridge, the whole span of the bridge taken in 1925 by a man called irving underhill. he got a hold of it and he's written on the back in big print keep this for my album in his very neat handwriting but if you look at that photograph, you will see that the work around the roadway looks a little more delicate. also it was strengthened. it's still as you know you can't drive a truck over the brooklyn bridge comes with still has a ways limit. of course when it ope

one of the things we see in the riot is the burning of the grain elevators in brooklyn. it was a kind of lashing out against automation. thrownrain elevators had grain shoveling men out of work. so that i think kind of encapsulates the problem of here is this discriminatory law that sort of passed into this one building resentment. that, waterfront work was what was called casual labor. most times you did not work five days a work -- a week. you might get three days a week. that one dollar a day you are sixng, you were not making dollars that week, you are making three dollars. factor, ande other i think it is clear this is why they were targeting the free blacks in new york, they were told over and over again by the democratic leaders in the city and the credit newspapers -- and the democratic newspapers, that if those 4 million enslaved people in the south were freed, they were going to come to the north and take away those men's jobs. richard: because they would work for less. john: they would work for less. are reasons that was ridiculous to have said, but a lot of pe
