Just cause I feel the need to kvetch, last Saturday they decided to close the pedestrian/cycle routes on all bridges for the 4th of July. I crossed from Manhattan to Brooklyn, saw a bunch of cops on the other side, and found out that there was no way back. There was no warning, no signs, nothing, until after I crossed. Later, I tried anyway and sure enough they wouldn't let me cross the Manhattan Bridge. But the cop said, "The Williamsburg should be open." I didn't believe him, but went up there anyway, and sure enough, it was closed too. Why do cops feel the need to make s*#t up? So then it was off to find the subway.
