destroy and rebuild

the approach to the fremont bridge
is being torn down. oddly, the bridge will remain open during the construction. oh, and seattle is home to five, count 'em, five! bascule bridges.

sadly, i was not intelligent enough to know the term bascule bridge...so i did what any resourceful person would do: googled it. here's a nice link for others who may not know:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bascule_bridge

p.s. the construction sounds coming from that bridge are a true delight to the work day, no?

pointing to the same url as i used in my original post cracked me up jenn. thanks!

uh, ok, mine was to the TYPE of bridge, actually - not to the Fremont bridge in particular. But true, I did not think to actually click on the Fremont Bridge link you provided because, well, I do know that that is...unlike the bridge type. Alas. Glad I gave you a chuckle...though, perhaps you were being sarcastic? ;)

no sarcasm here, just laughter.

hopefully, you are enjoying new york city!

glad to see i'm perhaps getting better at gauging your sarcasm...or not. ;)

having a good time here - how can you not? you're looking at my blog, no?
