It is very easy to find beauty in how the Pyramids or the Colosseum were made way back when. This bridge is a different kettle of fish. Nobody is going to come to Calgary to 'glance' at it.
I'll definitely go take a look next time I'm in Calgary. People might not come specifically for this bridge, but if more things like this are built and word gets out that Calgary is becoming a progressive cultural attraction, it definitely will add to the cause.

Im planning a trip to Spain and the moment, and one of things I want to go see is the Guggenheim in Bilbao....an industrial city that nobody ever heard of before Frank Gehry came to town. Don't underestimate the power of architecture. This might not be a big project, but you gotta start somewhere.
