And I love how you, an armchair urbanist and engineer, seem to think that the experts employed by the city, and had access to the engineering inspections, who recommended that the bridge be torn down made the wrong decision, because in your mind it could have been used as a flower garden or MUP at no additional cost in perpetuity. Not only are their regular engineering and liability expenses for preserving a bridge, but when it does come to the end of its life (or need a major overhaul to prevent chunks from falling on the highway), people will expect it to be replaced.
