We have the perfect view as the historical Johnson Street Bridge starts to come down. Having recently relocated to the island I have not been drawn into the various opinions for and against this change. It is clearly an emotionally charged issue here and it continues to amaze me how many people day after day make the trip down to the water to watch and take pictures. The day that they removed the rail span it was cold and pouring rain but still crowds gathered, huddled under umbrellas, some standing for hours to watch. I sat in my cozy sublet and marveled at the tenacity and felt privileged to have a front row seat to this....too bad it is so noisy!
