i hate walking a cross that bridge... it swings :(

I know! It's wild!! The cars really make it move around. That's why the lights are set to allow only a small number of cars to cross the bridge at one time! It was a novelty for us but I don't think I'd be crazy about having to walk across that bridge often! LOL

Wow - awesome video! The bridge looks to be in great shape. I remember how bad of shape it was in the 70's growing up there. Glad to hear it's been well cared for since then!

Nice video, I wish downtown could make a huge comeback.

Thanks for posting.

Neat Bridge.

I was very disappointed in downtown's condition. I'd looked forward to going there for many years and I guess I waited too long to do so - because it's definitely suffering from the recession among other things. Yet it's full of the most gorgeous old buildings!!! I loved them. I am glad you enjoyed seeing the video and thank YOU for writing!

my family has lived there for years. I love that bridge! I think it's beautiful. The most beautiful bridge in the country.
