A RIVER OVER A RIVER
Even after you see it, it is still hard to believe! Water Bridge in Germany. What a feat! Six years, 500 million euros, 918 meters long.........now this is engineering! This is a channel-bridge over the River Elbe and joins the former East and West Germany, as part of the unification project. It is located in the city of Magdeburg, near Berlin. The photo was taken on the day of inauguration.


Yikes.


Looks like more people are walking than using the boats....hmmmmm
Coarse edged youth, the irish pendants string from their smiles
not yet plucked as to slacken the seams
and drag down the features of age,
no folds or creases from unkempt wear
eyes of tranquilty, crystalline-beads
no sign of despair in their hair, nor their hearts
but oh they have yet to be experienced and that makes aging so very worth it...ML circa2012

Wouldn't a high speed train system be cheaper?


So......they built a water bridge...in order that boats could cross over the...water?
Yep, that's freakin' ingenious.![]()

Fucking great! Now I have to go look up why they built this stupid looking shit.
I hope there is a good reason for it.

Want to see a real beauty? Take a look at the construction being done for the new Hoover dam Bridge.





Troubled waters over troubled waters.....
