Happy Birthday

On the last day of the tenure of Mayor George B. McClellan, Jr., the Manhattan Bridge opened for the first time. Despite some neglect throughout the decades, on her centennial she's still looking fabulous - and certainly has no shortage of proper suitors to help her celebrate. There's Historians, Engineers, Politicians - all responsible beaus of legitimacy and good standing.

Still, if some old flames with improper intentions happened to steal a kiss or two in the early hours of the morning of her 100th birthday, just know that while their love may not be as honorable, it is nonetheless just as real.


Happy Birthday my dear. 100 years old, and you're still a heartbreaker.
