Brooklyn Bridge is in the side of the Hick Street and Old Fulton Street at Cadman Plaza West in Brooklyn in America. Art in the Anchorage offers annual public access to one of New York's most spectacular and evocative landmark structures. The Brooklyn Bridge Anchorage, a stunning performance space under the eaves of the bridge on the Brooklyn's side, hosts a popular art and music series in the summer.
