Oh red spirally bridge thing, how we miss thee

Suffolk Street Footpath Bridge : Originally uploaded by cactusinthesea.

There are many wonderful bridges in the world. � the careless gene.

“The mathematical bridge. The Rialto. The Bridge of Sighs. But none of them really made me smile like the Incomprehensible Bridge. I loved the way it started strongly across Suffolk Street Queensway, realised there wasn’t enough public ground to end, then swerved sheepishly across Holliday Street in a faintly haphazard manner. ‘Hi’, it said, ‘don’t mind me, I’m just being brutalist. Blame the library.’”
