History
The Brooklyn Bridge opened in 1883 and transformed Brooklyn from ferry‑dependent industry to a connected extension of Manhattan; Empire Stores were 19th‑century warehouses repurposed into public space.
Conservation
Keep to paths, avoid trampling planted areas in Brooklyn Bridge Park, and pack out any trash; the park manages heavy foot traffic and street cleanup to protect riverfront habitats.
