Great article and pics, thanks. The San Diego Harbor Drive bridge connects neither the trolley, nor Balboa Park (over 1 mile away.) but it's a cool ped bridge.
Cool bridge!
What a thrill to see the Tempe Town Lake Bridge featured in such great company !! What do you think Dan- Guy -Gary??
As a magazine the champions sustainability you may want to include in your list of amazing bridges; Walkway Over The Hudson. An abandoned former railroad trestle recreated as linear walkway spanning the Hudson River. At 212 feet above the river and 1.28 miles long, it is the longest, elevated pedestrian bridge in the world. The park is managed and maintained by New York State Parks. To be on the bridge so high up with such unobstructed views is a magical experience. http://walkway.org/
