New York City officials are considering an unusual plan to build a temporary elevated highway above the Brooklyn Bridge while the crumbling Brooklyn-Queens Expressway is repaired. The triple-cantilever section of the BQE has long needed urgent reconstruction, and the proposal to route traffic through the sky over one of the city's most iconic landmarks is drawing attention for its audacity.
Why now: The striking idea of a sky highway over the Brooklyn Bridge is a bold response to the long-running BQE repair crisis.
