Back in the early 90s, the tracks on the south side of the MB were still unused; the lower roadway was closed at night; and I lived in DUMBO–a perfect trifecta. I could walk up the lower roadway, cross the south side, unused tracks, and then ascend the iron-rung ladders that led up to the very top of the bridge on that side. What a beautiful view–I wish I had a camera in those days.
