It's so good to see this project underway! I love what they've done along that column. Sweet.

It looks complete, but apparently it's still not. Grand opening June 23rd. Why did this take so long to build?

The construction itself was pretty fast, but now we're waiting for red tape I guess. June 23rd? That's a little disappointing. Pics from today:

Can you at least use the thing? Or is it blocked off somehow?

No, they have it completely fenced off with lots of "No Trespassing" signage.

Interesting. Sounds like an invitation for a self-guided tour to me.

Here's several pictures I took from the new bridge on July 15 2012.

The whole album (69 pictures) is available here.

Just returned from playing a game of bocce down there, via the bridge.
