The Chain Bridge has a different shaping , which is not comfortable for this usage . It was the main reason to install the object there . We were not inventing anything new . We were giving attention to the attitudes of the public , and engineered the object for their existing behavior to another close location . In this case the object has become a public furniture . Giving a new function to the originally trespassing space . The spot has also became a look out tower . In the center of the city there is not much chance to see the sky or to see in long distance which can frustrate a person on a subconscious level . The bridge is functioning as look out tower also . It is the busiest bridge of Budapest , which also has the biggest touristic attention . It is very common to see tourists and locals taking photos and selfies there . The bridge connects the Buda side with the Pest side , which creates a mixed whole of citizens from different social class . The bridge was designed by the English engineer William Tierney Clark , it was the first permanent bridge across the Danube in Hungary . At the time of its construction , it was regarded as one of the modern world ’ s engineering wonders . It has asserted an enormous significance in the country ’ s economic , social and cultural life , much as the Brooklyn Bridge has in New York and United States of America . The bridge was a private property owned by the austrian György Sina . Every person had to pay before crossing the bridge . A person could pass the bridge for free at the time of his / her marriage .
