Brooklyn Today
Greetings, Brooklyn. Today is the 231st day of the year.
ON THIS DAY IN 1925, the Brooklyn Daily Eagle published an article titled “Sixteen Men Escape Death as Steel Pier Collapses.”
The article focused on an accident at a construction site at Pier 2 in Manhattan, causing serious injury to workers.
