    The Golden Gate bridge gets all the attention from documentaries while the Bay bridge is not any less amazing on its own.

    I wished the Bay Bridge got more attention too. I love the light show they used on the side of the buildings.

    My father helped build it. He was 21 at the time.

    Its amazing how we built these things back in the day with only pencil and paper and now we are designing things with all this technology! However... It seems like the things built with all this tech have mistakes and problems that come with it... Sometimes I wonder: What if we stuck with the pencil and paper method of building things? Would it make people want to get it exactly right?

    San Francisco - Oakland Bay Bridge and Golden Gate Bridge are my favorite bridges

    The Emlenton bridge is a steel arch bridge. I worked on it in 1968.

    The cantilever sections replaced by the new quake resistant roadway with the cute suspension . How an estimated 800 million project ran over budget by 5 billion is a mystery.....5 billion extra and delays allowed the "milking" to continue ......

    The frisco span is still up to this day. Oakland side needed to be fixed in the 80s.
