September 11, 2024 - The Cameron Suspension Bridge is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
"In March of 1911, Congress appropriated $90,000 for construction of a bridge built by the Midland Bridge Co. for the Office of Indian Affairs.
“At that time, there were hardly any cars,” Carson said. “It was a bridge for the Navajo people. The bridge was the earliest safe crossing of the river. It was meant for walking across with your cattle or your sheep.”
There's even a story that in 1937 a large herd of sheep crossing the bridge caused it to sway badly and nearly collapse, leading to some repairs to shore it up.
The Cameron Construction Bridge is an engineering marvel that played a large role in Arizona’s growth, according to an Arizona State Historic Preservation Office report.
According to the report, the bridge “is significant for its association with the initial growth of Arizona’s highway system as a major bridge which opened the northern portion of the state to development … A hybrid of suspension and truss forms, the bridge has engineering significance as the oldest surviving highway suspension bridge in the state and that utilized novel engineering techniques to cross the wide canyon of the Little Colorado River. Decades passed, technology advanced and foot traffic gave way to large vehicles. By the mid-1950s this became a problem as the old bridge was not capable of carrying heavy construction equipment needed to build the Glen Canyon Dam."

Where everybody goes to be alone
Oh my God I see how everything is torn in the river deep
To fall in the water just like a stone
And I don't know why I go the way
Down by the riverside
I can tell from your eyes
You've never been by the riverside

There are many river cruises in Singapore, and it is something very popular for tourists. Here is a river cruise boat on the water, a small number of visitors in the boat looking out of the boat. The boat is near the shore, and with large buildings on the shore. This building includes the One Fullerton plaza which is a large waterfront development.

This is one of the views from a cruise on the Marina reservoir in Singapore. One can see a bridge right in front and buildings behind. There are also a number of cranes at a construction site and there are a number of white clouds in the sky.
Emergent, an LA based firm, constructed a huge cantilevering structure that hung from three mount points over the space. The structural system was inspired by a dragonfly's wing, which uses honey comb structures combined with ladder structures.

"Looking up into the heart of a dream, where steel meets kaleidoscope."
A symmetrical perspective from beneath the "Blessing of the Big Whale" (大魚的祝福) in Anping. This composition highlights the rhythmic, skeletal beauty of the steel pipe structure, which leads the eye upward to the mesmerizing mosaic of stained glass.
The thousands of glazed glass pieces create a vibrant, geometric map of Taiwan, filtering the night light into a spectrum of hope and heritage. It is a quiet study of structural elegance and the colorful pulse of public art in the heart of the harbor.
