I was watching one of those old Superman serials from the 1940s and noticed a bridge that was rocking all over the place, and I recognized it immediately. The bridge is in Washington State.
How the Tacoma Narrows Bridge Became a Costly Mistake
I guess I should rephrase that as the bridge WAS in Washington State, at least the original bridge was.
A newer bridge sits in its place, but after the previous bridge lasted only four months, and is remembered as one of Washington State’s biggest mistakes and a huge “lemon” that cost the state millions.
