The new San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge, often referred to as the "Bay Bridge," is a modern engineering marvel that replaces the older eastern span damaged by the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake. Completed in 2013, it features a striking self-anchored suspension design with a single, sleek white tower, making it a unique landmark. The bridge is earthquake-resistant and designed to accommodate both vehicle and bike/pedestrian traffic, connecting San Francisco to Oakland across the San Francisco Bay. The span is known for its safety improvements, durability, and aesthetic appeal.
