  • This is a variant of a bridge I designed some years ago. After traffic on beloved Highway One reached a certain obscene level, the roadway automatically swiveled to point out over the ocean, thus offering a refreshing pause to the suffering Big Sur Nation inhabitants.

  • Funny Sterling. But it does look as though it is a bridge to an ocean drop-off currently. Something like a long hike off a short pier.
