Walk This Way

A couple weeks ago I walked across the Brooklyn Bridge and saw these odd markings on the street at the pedestrian entrance/exit on the Brooklyn side.  It turns out they were for a series of lighted arrows to help people find the entrance (for a landmark structure, the entrance is pretty hard to find).  Tonight was the bridge's 125th anniversary celebration, complete with these new lights, new energy efficient lighting on the bridge cables, and fireworks.  Today was the first day of the telectroscope, which is an underground telescopic tunnel that lets New Yorkers see Londoners and vice versa, and there will soon be a temporary waterfall under the bridge.  A two-year, 300 million dollar renovation of the bridge begins in 2009.
