another idea for a new icon.. and I know it's been discussed and possibly proposed.. but Marquam bridge has got to go! And get replaced with a nice new beautiful bridge painted in an appealing color.. I would vote for a steel through arch so that it kinda matches the Fremont since they're both Portland's freeway bridges..
I actually don't mind the under-truss Marquam bridge. The only real issue is below the bridge by SoWa, and they seem to be accounting for that with future developments around the bridge.
