To put into perspective, we wouldn't sit in awe of the "Golden Gate Tunnel", or the "Verrazano Tunnel", the "George Washington Tunnel", in the same way we look at their actual as built bridges, where the sight almost brings tears to your eyes in awe of many of them...even the ugly duckling Williamsburg Bridge is beautiful in it's own industrial era simplicity....And while newer bridges lack a bit of the speaking to soul architecture (such as the Verazanno, Whitestone, etc), of course they were built in a later age when simplicty archictecture was more the norm (think of 1940's, 50's, and 60's buldings compared to their earlier decades counterparts), the sheer sight and size of a bridge, does in fact provoke a human awe, way more than a tunnel does (even if probably technology and workwise, a tunnel is probably a lot more intricate). |
