Here's another hand held night shot from Songhees Point, the Johnson Street Bridge, looking apocalyptic in this light. I don't know when it's slated for demolition but every time I see it I expect it to be the last. (Like yesterday's photo the photo above was shot at ISO 6400 but the shutter speed on this was 1/30. These night shots (last 3 posts) were taken with my Sony Alpha 55 DSLT using a Minolta 50 mm 1.7 lens at f2.)

Situated on the far west coast of Canada, on the southern tip of Vancouver Island, Victoria is the capital city of the Province of British Columbia. Its benign climate (the warmest winters in Canada) and placid lifestyle make it a favorite retirement location as well as a popular tourist destination. About 400,000 people live in Victoria and adjacent communities.

That's a cool shot and I'm so sad it's gonna be demolished.
Great shot and what a nice construction.
Removing the railway portion is supposed to begin soon, before Christmas. The roadway portion, I'm not sure. It's possible it will continue in use while the new bridge construction begins, if it is offset/parallel to it.
I had no idea it was going to be demolished!
