Description
The graceful lines of the Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge in Dallas TX are endlessly fascinating. No matter which way you view it the twisting lines of the cables yield elegant lines. A relatively recent addition to the Dallas skyline, the Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge first opened in March 2012 with a celebration of parades, a street fair, live music, fireworks and a ceremonial ribbon run as 40,000 people joined the weekend long festivities. It provides an artful way of connecting Woodall Rodgers Freeway seamlessly to Singleton Boulevard in West Dallas. The bridge was named after Margaret Hunt Hill, an American heiress and philanthropist with close ties to many a great many charitable and philantropic organizations in Dallas TX. FUN FACT: Her father was H.L Hunt Jr, whose personal life, which featured many children by three wives, was among the chief inspirations for the television series Dallas. The character J.R. Ewing was largely based on popular perceptions of Hunt.
