Bridge - Runner

Hi, Michael,

Yes it is - the pole is holding this bridge. Here it is.

Interesting design with the support columns being on only one side of the bridge!

As an aside, I note that the Google Maps scene as that link brings it up shows the location of the Munich office of the consulting firm Accenture. When that name emerged (for what had been the consulting arm of the accounting firm Author Andersen, spun off in the wake of some untidy unpleasantness) I thought the name was "funny". We had a friend at church at the time who found himself with Accenture, and whenever, perhaps during coffee time after the church service, I would overhear him say, "Well, its called 'Accenture' now", I would say "Gesundheit."

I see now that the name was coined by employee Kim Petersen, it being derived from "Accent on the future". Too cute for me! Gesundheit!​

Thanks so much.

Best regards,

Doug
