OCTAVIO FRIAS DE OLIVEIRA BRIDGE, BRAZIL


Finished in 2008 over Sao Paulo’s Pinheiros River, the unusual feature of this bridge is that its two levels of traffic cross one another as they pass through the central pylon. Mind you, at 452 feet high, the pylon is pretty impressive too. It’s what’s holding this thing up. At night, LED lighting lights the place up like a 4th of July fireworks display. The floodlights have actually been stolen before, at a replacement cost of around half a million dollars. [Details]
