Completed in 1964, the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge only took 5 years to complete. Over 7,000 residents of what New York neighborhood were displaced in order to build this bridge?
Answer Bay Ridge, Brooklyn
Bay Ridge in Brooklyn is where the Verrazano Bridge spills into when it comes into the borough from Staten Island. Many of those who were displaced ended up moving to Staten Island. Interesting fact: Verrazzano with two "z's" is the correct spelling, and it wasn't corrected until 2018.
