For many of us, we often rush to get from point A to point B, whether for work, running errands or meeting up with friends. We absently and mindlessly walk through our cities without stopping to look up, to look around and to take in anything more than a street sign as we search for an address.
We miss out on appreciating the small things, the details, the craftsmanship of the architecture that’s all around us.
The Manhattan bridge, one of the most heavily used bridges on the Earth; supporting approximately 90,000 vehicles, pedestrians and cyclists per day is not just mammoth in its structure but genuinely a work of art.
I’ve always appreciated it’s beauty from a distance but when you really look, when you really stop to pay attention and take in the small details on each side of the towers you see the art and the beauty that we can always find if we take the time.
