Memorial Weekend on Brooklyn Bridge Part II

Walking over the Brooklyn Bridge during memorial weekend was like going to an air show. There were all sorts of military planes flying overhead. Brooklyn Bridge is a great vantage point to see several landmarks of NYC, like the statue of liberty and Governor's Island.
Apache attack helicopters.
Osprey Transport plane. One of these got into some trouble earlier that morning when it blew branches onto a crowd at Staten Island Park.
Governor's Island. It use to be a navy base, but now the city wants to turn it into an artist venue. Kirkland's Ballet School is trying to get on there.
Downtown Manhattan.

That is the Statue of Liberty behind Pier 17.
