Located inside the Brooklyn Bridge on the Brooklyn side, "The Anchorage" is one of New York City's more unique landmark structures. It is composed of a series of eight barrel-vaulted masonry and brick arched spaces, framed by the piers which support the bridge, with ceilings nearly 50 feet high. The Brooklyn Bridge Anchorage is located inside the base of the Brooklyn Bridge at Cadman Plaza West at the intersection of Hicks Street and Old Fulton Street in Brooklyn. To get there, walk down Cadman Plaza West toward the river under the BQE overpass, the Anchorage entrance is to the right. Unfortunately, the Anchorage is no longer open to the public.
