Everglade Maine; Natural Growth

Wow! I have a vote!

Keep it as a historical landmark and deem it a pedestrian bridge! The healthy crowd walking to the Farmer's Market will appreciate the rustic throwback from the olden days to get them in the fresh food spirit!

P.S., good CJ!

Mostly when I upgrade bridges I incorporate the old one into the new bridge network.
No point spending more money demolishing it when it can serve as an alternative when the new one is conjested with an accident or whatever... you've spent the money building it, keep until it's in the way.

In one case in central Boston (Khole Inlet) I kept a street bridge alongside a road bridge all the way up until I needed an avenue bridge, and then I took the street bridge down and replaced it with the avenue bridge, so that it still to this day has the road bridge beside it... same principle.

That's my idea - take it or leave it.

I like where you're going with this CJ.

"Bonnie bridge had its wood paved over with asfault when it was neccesary, but now the bridge is too old to continue service." Keeping both bridges in service doesnt seem a viable option.

I think it should be kept as a pedestrian crossing and fishing vantage point. See: Hornibrook Bridge in Brisbane Australia. (2nd longest bridge in Australia, next to the longest)

The choice here seems clear. Keep the bridge it doesn't bring any benefits to demolish it so...
Keep it a pedestrian crossing, as tomyzor said.It is a nice idea.

Definitely have to keep it!! Covered bridges are historical sites in my area IRL.

I say keep the bridge..and just a suggestion..to make your downtown area more realistic, i think more grided streets should be neccesary, and then slowly fade out..like in real life. You could make it a downtown re-development project or something. Just a suggestion. Kep up the good work!! 

 I agree, the downtown should have grided streets. Other than that, your doing great.

nate1245 & Jeh7497: I am following CSGdesign's "Natrual Growth" Concept so the streets are going to stay like that even when theres skyscrapers.
