No, the Brooklyn Bridge wasn't built by a woman, but Emily Warren Roebling played a crucial and indispensable role in the project's completion. When her husband, Chief Engineer Washington Roebling, was unable to work due to illness, Emily took over day-to-day construction supervision, acquired the necessary skills, and acted as a liaison between the construction site and her husband. She was the "political force" and the "eyes and ears" for the bridge, thus enabling the successful completion of the structure.
