back to the beginning of humanity, before the wheel, before we domesticated any animals, when all bridges were pedestrian bridges. This is my pedestrian comment on pedestrian bridges.

Honolulu is poised to spend an insane amount of money on an unnecessary bridge. Just bonkers.
63 million is before the endless delays and increased costs. We could house and feed everyone in the islands for quite some time with that. Nuts.

I'd better get back to cleaning up~ thank you for your post. I'm sure it will be a very nice bridge in Seattle. Ours, I have no faith in.
