Reseña del libro "Staten Island and the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge: Chaos Comes to a Community (en Inglés)"

With the opening of the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge in 1964, Staten Island was changed forever.Sewers, schools, roadways, and even the politicians of New York City were not prepared for the onslaught of relocating Brooklyn residents who sought a rural lifestyle. Houses were bought as quickly as they were built. Schools were scrambling to find seats for thousands of newly arriving students. The antiquated sewer system of Staten Island could not handle the overload and there simply wasn't enough room for all of the septic tanks needed. Who were the allies or adversaries of development? Who sought to make a meaningful plan for Staten Island's future? Author Patricia Salmon examines the preparation, design, and opening of "The Bridge," as well as how it impacted the citizens of Staten Island during the next decade.
