I don't get the ire being drawn for the Peace Bridge, when the second bridge, for the same price and being done through an open design process, gets none.

Looking at those two pics makes me like the fingertrap even more. The other one looks skeletal. Like some cheap, bare bones bridge. At least the fingertrap looks like something. A little colour. A little design.

The whining about the fingertrap just comes off as mass hysteria. Like people don't even know why they're mad. They just read or heard that there's a bridge that's "ugly" and it cost $25 million, so they want to be pissed off because their neighbour is pissed off about it. Who even knows how much a regular bridge costs?
