Sounds nutty...but eh...why not?

I've heard the finished project is supposed to look something like this:

I was wondering if anything had come of this. While not the most important thing in the world, I for one think it would be really cool.

Well, like in an earlier thread where I asked if Pittsburgh could use a "signature structure", this could be the ticket.

I wish our signature structures were roads that don't look like Fallout 3.

That would be a great start.

Background music would be good too...but unrealistic. Can anyone tell me why the moon never moves?

I've been to and lived in Germany. I was not attracted to it by its roads. I did make a trip to Paris to see the Eiffel Tower however.

My main point was that there are more pressing infrastructure problems that should be addressed before goofing around with stuff like this. I mean, we have the inclines as our famous structures already.
