#Williamsburg Bridge

[newyorkthegoldenage]

Edward Hopper, From the Williamsburg Bridge, 1928. Oil on canvas.

In this painting, Hopper depicts the austere facades of four apartment buildings and reduces the steel suspension of the Williamsburg Bridge to the margins. Completed in 1903 and connecting Brooklyn with Manhattan, the structure is indicated only by the unobtrusive railing rising at a slight diagonal along the bottom of the canvas. As opposed to focusing on the bridge that facilitates movement in and out of the city, Hopper creates an image absent of noise or motion. He emphasizes the alienation and anonymity of urban life by including a single figure: a woman sitting alone in a top story window.

Just remembered that during Battle At Williamsburg Bridge it's mentioned that during one of Kronos' attacks he knocks off some of his own and Apollo demigods over the bridge.

Were they ever recovered?

What about that kid we see getting dragged away? Was he ever recovered?

How many siblings did the Apollo cabin have to say goodbye to with no body to burn?

Just food for thought :3

Taken New Years Eve in 2022. Went for a walk to clear my head. Stopped to think in the middle of the Williamsburg Bridge. It was a very atmospheric night.
