No, you just have to pay a lot more for it, and civil projects don't typically allow for endlessly ballooning budgets.

- akira2501 3y agoBuilding pretty things on land is significantly easier than building them over water. Engineering is the art of tradeoffs. You want to pick your "aesthetics" battles somewhat carefully. Which also means you're going to want some _solid_ justifications for incorporating them into a retrofit.
