  • I was hesitant. The shear cost of this baby alone is enough to make your hair stand up. How much? $30,400 per square metre. $30,400 per square metre for a bridge that doesn't even get you across the road. How do you cross the road? You walk the very short distances to one of the other pedestrian bridges that actually have the additional infrastructure to cross Memorial drive. Smart. It's artistic. It's called the peace bridge because it represents peace. Not a specific circumstance, just peace in general. Deep.Well, that's pretty hard to argue with. You don't like the peace bridge? Why do you hate peace?! Deep. It's red to represent the colour of Calgary...which is red. Deep. Deep like a 3rd grade art project. I deal with it by crossing it every day. At the end of my life time I should feel like I got my money's worth out of this thing and in a way, I already feel like I have... What's interesting about the peace bridge is the interest it creates. Each day I cycle through it's finger trap-like lines, I see people stopped, looking out at the river, looking up at the bridge. People taking pictures of their friends standing along a railing. People watching a man with a guitar, the sounds echoing clearly through it's tunnelled construction. Rows of photographers lined up at night, trying to uncover new way and angles to see it from. Couples holding in hands and falling in love to the soft wash sound of the river. I see people being inspired and intrigued and I see people connecting with their city and becoming a part of it. That's something you can't put a price on. Oh, wait. Yes you can. It was $25,000,000.00. Thanks for the 100th review, Peace Bridge. You know I love you.
