With half the Johnson Street Bridge gone I am always reminded of the gap-toothed smile of a six year old, though it's not quite so engaging. Despite the near manic urgency of the decision to build a new bridge some years ago nothing seems to be happening except the projected cost is rising (up about $15 million over the original budget). Click HERE to see what the new bridge might look like and what the city has to say about the project.

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 is one ugly design for the new bridge. It's awful! Who was the brainchild who approved it? I'm so sad to see the blue bridge go. :(
It would be a pity if this bridge disappears from sight. A remarkable design in its own right.
