Penobscot Narrows Bridge

This picture of Penobscot Narrows Bridge was taken from the Penobscot Narrows Bridge Observatory.  The Penobscot Narrows Bridge is a 2120 feet long bridge that connects Verona Island, Maine to Prospect, Maine.  The bridge opened in May 2007 replacing the Waldo-Hancock Bridge, built in 1931.  One can still see evidence of the old bridge in the concrete pylon in the water just left of the bridge in the photo.  Tickets for the ride up the 420 feet Observatory can be purchased at the Ft Knox facility adjacent to the bridge.  This view would have been even more awesome had it not been for the fog.
