Morgan bank building in New York City, killing 30 people immediately - 8 later died due to their injuries - and injuring another 200.

Italian anarchists were suspected of the bombing.
Did you know?
In 1937, Verdell was 17 years old when on May 28th, the San Francisco Golden Gate Bridge opened to cars. Taking 5 years to build, the 4,200-foot-long suspension bridge was an engineering marvel of its time - 11 men died during construction. The "international orange" color was chosen because it resisted rust and fading. To the present, it is the symbol of the City that is known throughout the world.
