Does anyone recognize this bridge?

I saw it today and want to know more.

Did you take the photo? Where were you?

Did you see the actual bridge? Or have you only seen this photosim? It's quite possible that the bridge was never built.

Best answer: Here it is! I found it by googling "undulating footbridge germany" (without quotes). The background looked like Germany to me, so I took a guess. It sounds like maybe it's just a proposal, not an actual construction (yet).

It appears this is a proposal by a Toronto architecture firm, Ja Studio Inc, for a Maribor foot bridge in Slovakia.

Sorry, Slovenia, not Slovakia.

It is kinda similar to this bridge in Toronto. Which is actually too steep to walk on comfortably.

TinEye is good for identifying photos.

It's not so great on the one-pixel spaceball.gif "you ain't savin' shit" thing flickr does, unfortunately.

I actually used TinEye on this one. It worked like a charm.
