Ouch! A lot of money for simply restoring a bicycle and foot bridge.
- jrockway 11y agoWait until you hear what three new subway stations cost.
- nether 11y agoA few billion?
- perfTerm 11y agoHmm not necessarily depending on the commerce it generates, the cost it'd take to let it crumble, and the cost the city would incur trying to build a new bridge. Luckily here where things are so population dense, opening a pedestrian bridge can have a really positive impact on the local communities. And to tear such an awe inspiring (at least to me literally every time I pass it) structure would be absolutely shitty.
