Ok, that is fine. Neither one of knows really if the bridge needs to be replaced or not. We both to my knowledge have looked at NYCDOT inspection records/reports. I have heard IIRC that the NYCDOT has wanted in the past replace both MB & WillyB. But, I do not know if there is that want b/c of age or condition. I agree with you that it must still be within acceptable parametere as it is still open. But, that does not mean they shouldn't be replaced. Now, b/c I say it should be replaced does not mean they will be.

Now, in a convo I had w/Broadway Lion I agreed that they needed to replace the bridge in Bismark. Then in talking about the MB I said "I am still of the opinion that the MB should be replaced..." Which drew out this comment from you: "Everyone already knows the MB has issues. That's why they just repaired it!!!!!!!!!!" Now, the way I took it was that you were saying my opinion was wrong, and that really has not been proven as just b/c they repaired the bridge does not mean it is better it can be just a band aid to hold it over to yet another repar or even maybe replacement.
