Re: Drive By Shooting in Detroit

Nina, I took those while driving. I've always had a fascination with bridges. I took some shots in San Franscisco but I have no clue where those pictures are. Probably on Snapfish and I can't assess those albums anymore. [img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/70402-thinking.gif[/img]

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Compry</div><div class="ubbcode-body">I did a fast in and out recently. While driving along I-94, this bridge caught my eye so I quickly grabbed the camera and snapped while racing along the freeway. Turns out this bridge is the not so infamous bridge that was built for Super Bowl 2006. I like the design but apparently the locals don't.



It's been called:

McBridge
Monkey Bar Bridge
Malfunction Junction Bridge
BUBBA (butt ugly blue bridge arch)
The Big Blue Blunder
The Car Strangled Spanner
Motor City Gateway

Oh no.. [img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/704555_dwl.gif[/img] Whamek dem doh the people dem design soh? The Car Stangled Banner [img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/grin.gif[/img]....
