The Brooklyn Bridge. The Brooklyn Bridge was constructed in 1869, with construction finally ending in 1883. It also allows pedestrian travel as well as automobile.
Independent. Although Hundred's running partner Dave Wylie thought Hundred's candidacy would just hand the race to the Republican nominee, Hundred surprised everyone and won in a landslide victory.

Serve jury duty. Hundred is unexpectedly called for jury duty and decides not to seek an exemption from it, convinced that his actions may show the public that he is willing to play by the rules.
