That is incredible that you had that opportunity! I have a lot of respect for him and his work, though I didn't know about the name of the bridge or the man whom it is named after until after viewing the bridge in person. Thanks

That's impressive. We have something similar in Holland; www.straatbeeld.nl/project/060β¦ - nicknamed 'De Zwaan' (The Swan)

Sure thing - yes, from my understanding he was a champion for the down-trodden; my hat's off to him ~

The started work on the bridge in the late 90's and completely finished with it by 2003. Β That was before I left the country but it was quite a project to witness at various stages. Β

It was a political and economic nightmare occasionally but still a beautiful bridge.

Hmm...since it's based in Boston, it certainly could be! I've never seen the movie....but it is a popular bridge for sure.
^ the above being said, how would you rate the movie? Should I watch it sometime?
