LincolnKennedy:
Great pictures, mrnyc.  I'm impressed with the design.  I usually feel like starchitects tend to recycle the same idea over and over again, particularly Frank Gehry.  Foster's design looks both classic and innovative.

mohr37:
Agreed.  Foster, imo, is probably the best of the starchitects.  From the British Museum to the  New German Parliament, they are all much better pieces of work than what Gehry has ever done.  But what do I know, I'm not an architect. 

In the perfect world, I would have Foster design the new Brent Spence Bridge in Cincy.  His Millau Bridge in France is awesome.

UncleRando:
Yes the bridge is quite impressive!

LincolnKennedy:
That's quite pretty, but the site clearly has something to do with it.  Any examples of good modern & urban bridge design?
