    When I was growing up in Sacramento my father would take us to San Francisco and we crossed this bridge every time. This video brings back so many good memories. Thank you for making this video.

      When Dad was home from working on the train, we crossed this bridge to go pick up Mom from her job @ Korets of California from arounfd 64-72. Back in the 60's, one could use the upper or lower half of the bridge to go either way; east-west and i would always insist on taking the top tier so i could see the view each way. I miss the old girl...

    This is probably why I love San Francisco so much. It's because of the Bay Bridge. The tunnel with all the lights is probably my favorite part of the whole bridge. I just laugh every time I see it. Ahh, good memories, good times.

    My birthday is on August 28th. I fell in love with this magnificent American wonder since I was born, which made me interested in bridges for a hobby and making me want to become a civil engineer. This was my most favorite out of all bridges even the Golden Gate, which was ranked #2 to me. But, yes it's sad, but it was good to know I got to cross and enjoy it for exactly 20 years of my life, and I will miss the old drive. But, I look forward to the new span as it starts a chapter for my life and the Bay Bridge's.

    Recently they changed the westbound exit to Yerba Buena Island from the left side to the right. It's opened up a new part of the island that most traffic never saw. They have some lame barriers blocking other parts of the island, halfway tempted to go around them every time I drive by just to see the old Yerba Buena streets before they tear it all up and change it.

    We had a similar thing happen in 1995 in Delaware, when the State Rt. 1 Turnpike bridge (a cable-stayed bridge similar to the new Eastern Span and the Skyway Bridge in FL). The adjacent St. Georges Bridge was going to be torn down, but wad rehabbed for the locals (their town is divided by the Chesapeake & Delaware Canal).

    I always liked the shadows on the road from sunlight going through the box beams and because the beams were the same pattern the rows of them would telescope into the distance with the near ones passing overhead. Also the family memories of driving every Tuesday to pick up my son from his fencing practice in SF then returning home to Oakland.

    San Francisco's losing its soul and character, and turning into a craphole. The Transbay Terminal project and the new east span of the Bay Bridge are a good example. And Candlestick Park is another huge loss. 10-15 years from now, you won't hardly recognize the place.
