Your city must have a LOT of extra money lying around!

Your federal tax dollars at work, baby! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gibbs_S...estrian_Bridge

We paid 10% -- and with our Team Performance, REI rebates and coupons, it was practically free!.

Only $6.7 million!

Ours was nearly $15 million
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_Avenue_Bridge and we don't have any
elevators.

These projects, while expensive, at least result in something that is
useful. Better than spending the money invading some third world country
on trumped up, false, pretenses. This crossing was originally supposed
to be a regular road crossing but the neighborhoods on both sides really
didn't want that built.

Amusingly, one area of opposition to the bicycle-pedestrian bridge was
the neighborhood on the south side which was worried that the high
school boundaries would be redrawn and they'd have to send their kids to
the now easily accessible Homestead High School instead of the more
distant Monta Vista High School. Stupid, because the reality is that
Homestead is a much better school in many ways, even though Steve Jobs
went there.

Intersting skyways. But real cyclists would ride up the steps, not slob up the elevator.
