The impact that the bridge had on the local community will certainly be felt for a long time . |

All I know is that FIU's poorly aged tweet has stayed up longer than the bridge |

that's an interesting design, the bottom of the bridge looks awfully thin considering the span length. news media "hard at work" googling the construction company to find past worksite safety issues http://www.miaminewtimes.com/news/fiu-b ... s-10176596 |

Seems like they were trying to put up a pedestrian bridge over a crowded and busy road. |

Quote: George Harrison remembered it:
I helped Eric [Clapton] write "Badge" you know. They were all working on that Goodbye Cream album and Eric didn't have a song for it yet. We were working across from each other and I was writing the lyrics down and we came to the middle part so I wrote 'Bridge.' Eric read it upside down and cracked up laughing – 'What's BADGE?' he said. After that, Ringo [Starr] walked in drunk and gave us that line about the swans living in the park.[5] |
