Regarding the Yale bridge, I’m curious if they will do anything with that little stub of a railroad bridge just to the west. It would be cool if they repurposed it into a pedestrian bridge but that’s just my little fantasy.
RE: Yale Street bridge

As a longtime Inner Looper, I love that bridge for its looks – and doubly so when the Wal-Mart and associated stores weren’t there years ago. I can hope that they can echo the style when they rebuild it for the modern era.

As a side note, when is Swamplot going to come back from its summer vacation? I wish I could take this long for a “break”. :)
