Abandoned (Ruined) Bridge Kinzua Viaduct in McKean County, Pennsylvania.

Once the world's highest and longest rail viaduct bridge (the centre towers were about 300 feet tall when standing) was toppled by extremely strong winds - a possible tornado - in 2003.

@Walter Hinteler,

Quote:

he Slinky Springs to Fame bridge is illuminated at night in the western German city of Oberhausen (north of Dusseldorf). The 350-meter-long bridge was designed by German artist Tobias Rehberger, and was conceived to be part of the Ruhr area’s 2010 European Capital of Culture programme. Instead of the programme commissioning a bridge, it was the artist who came up with the suggestion of building one in the site. The result, a spiral inspired by the “Slinky” the toy developed in the 1940s, is a spectacular and colourful pedestrian bridge.
