They are waiting to see if the world is really going to end in 2012, after that if we’re all still alive, there will be progress towards a new bridge.

I like the arch design the best, not like anyone of them will get built. It does not surprise me one bit that there are already lawsuits being drawn up, Nothing fucking changes in this stupid City, and it’s the same assholes every time that keep this city from any progress.

If it took them this long to approve the designs, how long will it take them to choose one let alone start building one?

I don’t really mind this because cities have a history of doing absolutely fucking nothing with the properties they take down. Ever been to Detroit?

Well Buffalo has a history of doing absolutely nothing in spite of it’s useless properties. After a cursory Google search, I found the properties mentioned are a boarded-up nondescript chapel and an old boarded-up brick house.

Yes, they have potential and local historical significance, but the old saying applies here: “What have you done for me lately?”

I would rather see a new bridge and commercial development than perpetuate the existence of unused property in the ghetto.

make a tunnel, and to get around all of these people bitching about it being build. don’t tell anyone you are building it until it is finished. It will keep the birds safe too.

How about we take the original, duplicate it for 1/10th the cost, and have it done in a year instead of a 20 year cluster fuck. Its a god dam bridge, not a fashion statement.

Based on the “quality” of the Chinese crap we see here I think I’d pass on driving on their 31 mile long bridge and underwater tunnel.
