I'm still not sure if I like the new colors of the Market Street Bridge. It also is lighted now. I remember when it was completely silver. I used to walk it as a boy and you could look on the roadbed and see straight down to the river. That was adventurous to me, back then. But the real excitement was walking the old PRR R.R. bridge further north in the city. That mammoth was intimidation at its highest.

Personally, I don't care for the color scheme, either.  It looked better in silver, IMO.

The ex-PRR bridge is magnificent, isn't it?  Ever climb up a truss?  (They have a handrail, but I wouldn't trust them or recommend this activity).  It's too dangerous.

I walked over it several times as a young boy and that was very dangerous and "scary". Especially, when a train would come through. The adrenaline was great though! I would never, however, try to climb the truss.

You don't want to try that?     

Me, neither.
