“A must-have for any design, architecture, or Bay Area enthusiast.” —Front Door/HGTV An innovative landmark a quarter century in the making, the eastern span of the San Francisco–Oakland Bay Bridge represents the latest spectacular chapter in the history of this storied structure. The new bridge’s architect, Donald MacDonald, teams up with author Ira Nadel to create this illuminating book. With friendly text and charming illustrations, Bay Bridge reveals the design decisions that have shaped the evolution of the bridge over the last century—from the history of the original bridge, through the planning of the new span, to the construction of its signature 525-foot-high white tower. This volume offers a fascinating read for San Francisco devotees, architecture buffs, and tourists. “Evokes all the mythic splendor and danger of the ‘Titan of Bridges’ . . . As the architect of the new eastern span of the bridge, MacDonald brings intimate knowledge of the technical, political, and geological hurdles involved in its construction.” —ForeWord Reviews
