Notes on the Masonry of the East River Bridge
Having spent considerable time during the past winter in getting together the details of the masonry and attachments of the East River bridge, so far as completed, and in revising the estimates of the work so far as practicable, the writer desires to place on record the following details respecting the two towers and anchorages. The figures referring to the towers will be given chiefly in connection with the Brooklyn tower and important differences only will be noted. In addition to all, there will be a balustrade around the towers on the cornice at the roadway and also at the edge of the roof slopes. This will increase the height to 276 feet above tide.
