Description
Bug's eye view of the Rachel Carson Bridge in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, (USA). Rachel Carson Bridge, also known as the Ninth Street Bridge, spans the Allegheny River in downtown Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania in the United States. The total length is 840 feet including the 410-foot main span and two 215-foot side spans. Named for the naturalist Rachel Carson, a Pittsburgh native, it is one of three parallel bridges called The Three Sisters, the others being the Roberto Clemente Bridge and the Andy Warhol Bridge. The Three Sisters are self-anchored suspension bridges and are significant because they are the only trio of nearly identical bridges—as well as the first self-anchored suspension spans—built in the United States.

Got lots of stares from the bridge traffic - lying on the infrastructure to get this shot!
