 DD> The construction of the Brooklyn Bridge was a brilliant feat of
 DD> 19th-century engineering. It was the first bridge to use steel for
 DD> cable wire, and during its construction explosives were used inside a
 DD> pneumatic caisson for the first time.

I just watched a great documentary on YT about the Brooklyn Bridge and how
it very nearly didn't get completed.  Fascinating stuff.
