Quote from: Alex on April 24, 2024, 10:03:43 AMUntil there is something formal announced about a name change for a replacement bridge, let's move on from that speculation, Francis Scott Key's legacy, and also philosophical concepts involving demographics.

Not sure whether that warrants a  :-D or a  :banghead: .
More like a :pan:

But as Alex said, there's no word on when the new bridge will have a different name, so let's just assume that it'll also be called the Key Bridge. After all, President Biden did say they were going to rebuild it, so there we have it.

All the GSV imagery from the bridge has been removed. The previous workaround of dragging the stick man to where the bridge used to be no longer works, and you can no longer advance onto the bridge from within GSV itself.

Not sure what the point of removing the images is?  The bridge did in fact exist and the right of way seemingly will be reused.
