Harbor Drive Pedestrian Bridge : ウィキペディア英語版 | Harbor Drive Pedestrian Bridge
The Harbor Drive Pedestrian Bridge crosses Harbor Drive at Park Boulevard in downtown San Diego, California. It is long which makes in one of the longest self-anchored pedestrian bridges in the world.〔("Karla Peterson: Pedestrian bridge is worth the walk" ), ''San Diego Union-Tribune'', April 2, 2011〕 The span measures while the remainder is approaches.〔Measured using Google Earth〕 Completed in March 2011, the bridge was built to accommodate pedestrian traffic from the Petco Park baseball stadium crossing to and from parking areas on the other side of Harbor Drive at the Hilton Bayfront Hotel.〔(Centre City Development Corporation page about the Harbor Drive Pedestrian Bridge )〕 The bridge crosses over six lanes of traffic, a rail yard and trolley tracks, and connects the convention center with the Gaslamp Quarter and the East Village. It is accessible by stairs and elevators. The bridge is suspended from a single tall pylon set into the ground at a 60 degree angle. The unusual, "eyecatching"〔("Hilton won't help foot bill for pedestrian bridge" ), ''San Diego Union-Tribune'', February 14, 2008〕 design features a curved concrete deck that is suspended only on the deck's inside curve by a single pair of suspension cables. The bridge was constructed using stainless steel and has lighting above and below the deck. It has been described as "a sleek, nautically themed bridge with a very nice view of the city."〔 The Harbor Drive Pedestrian Bridge was built by Reyes Construction, Inc. and was designed by T.Y. Lin International. It cost $26.8 million〔 and was funded in part by a $6 million grant from the California Transportation Commission.〔("City gets grant for pedestrian bridge" ), ''San Diego Union Tribune'', September 4, 2008〕 ==References==
