I've Got a Bridge (Design) To Sell You

"Hey, we've seen this before!"
"Yeah, in Redding, CA!"

That was our reaction to the Puente de la Mujer in Buenos Aires. It's a beautiful bridge, but it's almost identical to the one that's only a 3 hour drive from home! We came millions of miles, I mean, thousands of miles to see this?!?

The architect, Sergio Calatrava, designed the Puente de la Mujer to represent a man pressing up against a lady: an homage to Tango. That makes sense for Buenos Aires, but what the heck is this same bridge doing in Redding? Is it suppose to represent Jethrow pressing up against Wilma on the haystack?

Our suspiscion is that he designed a pretty bridge and then decided to sell the same design to Redding, CA. It's not like any of those Redding bumpkins will ever know. It's kinda like Beyonce and Kelly Clarkson having the same tune to their songs.
