July 4th Fireworks are coming back to the Brooklyn Bridge
Macy’s 43rd annual Fourth of July fireworks show will be set off from the Brooklyn Bridge this year for the first time since 2014, according to the retail chain.
Since the fireworks display returned to the East River from the Hudson in 2014, its location has shifted — and for the past couple of years, the only viewing locations have been up near northern Brooklyn.
This year, in addition to beneath the bridge itself, Macy’s will set off fireworks from four barges along the shores of Pier 17 at the South Street Seaport, south of the bridge.
