Crossing Brooklyn Ferry

We use you, and do not cast you aside—we plant you permanently within us,
We fathom you not—we love you—there is perfection in you also,
You furnish your parts toward eternity,
Great or small, you furnish your parts toward the soul.

- Walt Whitman, Crossing Brooklyn Ferry

At ?WhatIf!

Here is my illustration of a man in a crow's nest peering into the cloudy future where he see a (soon-to-be-built for Whitman) Brooklyn Bridge that would change the skyline forever.
