World’s Most Stunning Bridges

Huffingtonpost.com has published their list of the World’s Most Stunning Bridges. This list is not a list of the world’s most famous bridges, but a list of “wonders of design and icons of the creative spirit.” The Coronado Bridge in San Diego, California is the only domestic bridge to make the list. In 1970, the bridge was named the country’s “most beautiful bridge” by the American Institute of Steel Construction. Another interesting fact is that it is the third deadliest suicide bridge in the USA, trailing only the Golden Gate bridge in San Francisco, CA, and the Aurora Bridge in Seattle, WA.
