Why the Tacoma Narrows Bridge was nicknamed Galloping Gertie

The Tacoma Narrows Bridge is one of the epic civil engineering failures of all time. Immediately after its August 1940 grand opening, motorists and engineers alike realized that something was not quite right with it. The bridge deck undulated in waves, up and down, and the bridge was quickly nicknamed "Galloping Gertie."

An architect envision what comes after the Viaduct

Architect David Miller has lived his entire life in proximity of Seattle’s Viaduct. As a child, he traveled its concrete decks with his family and in his adult life he has peered out over the elevated highway from his office at work and his downtown apartment. And now that the Viaduct is coming down – or being “undone” in his words – Miller is playing a role in determining what comes after.
