"Charming historic Manhattan Bridge, connects Manhattan to Brooklyn and is in need of some repairs. To make an offer call NYC Mayor Bloomberg."Some thought the old saying "I have a bridge for sale" was a mark of a naive individual who was clueless to the tactics of con artists and thieves, but in these hard pressed economic times with cities and states running deficits don't be so quick to throw out a guy that is trying to sell you the Brooklyn Bridge.
This ARTICLE was featured on a CBS website forever bringing America to new and bizarre practices of debt relief. The investors who either lease or purchase these bridges would be able to procure revenue from tolls. Currently the MTA is responsible for these bridges, but due to municipal economic pressures the idea that their sale may offset major repair costs through privatization may be "on the table." If, or ever the Broooklyn Bridge, or any bridge sells for that matter, will be a question that sparks much future controversy and debate.
