Questions for Photo 3

1. In 1918, the National Park Service stated that, "in the construction of roads, . . . particular attention must be devoted always to the harmonizing of these improvements with the landscape." How does this bridge attempt to do that? Do you think it succeeds? Do you agree with the Park Service policy?

2. The photo shows a car moving quickly across the bridge. Do you think the driver would be aware that he was crossing a bridge?
