That is going to be phenomenal for the neighborhoods that connect underneath the suspended deck, and aesthetically enhancing the museums and cultural centers.

Maybe so, but it’s been a nightmare for the last 4 and next 4 years.

Look at the renderings. There are adding 4 new lanes to I-395. So even though it will be new bridges, its going to be like 12 lanes wide. Its going to be super dark underneath there

It’s not. Have you looked at the design presentation for the bridge? How they get sunlight under there is explained well.

I don’t recall ever seeing a positive comment from you … maybe if there are liner units on some building you say something positive but even then there is usually something else wrong. Happy much?

People keeps saying every major city has a signature bridge, and of course, that’s what miami goes after. Not public transportation, not protecting the Guzman center, coconut grove playhouse, the tower theater or the miami circle, the housing problems, I’m sure I’m missing something. Almost a billion dollars on a bridge

What you and most people dont realize is that City of Miami nor Miami dade county decided on this. Rather, the FDOT gave the money to the county and city as long as they used the money to rebuild the bridge. While i def think this much money could have gone to expanding metrorail i’d rather the county take the money

“On schedule” if you ignore the original 2023 completion date.

Even more beautiful than I expected, the connection between Brickell, Downtown, and Midtown is starting to become visible and very alive, which is breathtaking. The city has transformed dramatically in just a few months.

No wonder it’s taking forever is the budget it the same, because that money is worth less every day.

Great !! And the overpass of 836 around JMH will be finished in 2127 , since there’re only 5-7 construction workers at the site !!

Al those concrete column’s already built resemble the Easter Island monoliths…

Unless the clown VP is kicked out this November, we will share the same fate as the Romans.
