This artist's impression shows how it was supposed to turn out
But they were a long way off at this point
A viaduct and one of the main structures in place
The big towers are each more than 100m tall
Yeah, that's pretty big
The view from the end of the approach viaduct
An estimated 63 people died building these huge structures
The bridge took eight years to finish
Must have got a bit noisy for the people living in that house
The thing about people having to constantly paint it is a myth, although the bridge has always had a permanent maintenance crew
And it's still looking pretty good today
