Golden Gate Bridge

Joseph Strauss, Charles Ellis and Irving Morrow designed it; the Bechtel Corp. (based in San Francisco) built it.

746ft (227 m)

Yes it us its the 4th largest

Its always open, the only time it will be closed is incase the bridge is seriously damaged or really bad weather conditions

Pacific ocean amd north/south bay and connects san francisco.

5,000 to 10,000 gallons every year

Golden Gate Bridge is a suspension bridge

Construction start: January 5, 1933. Construction end: April 19, 1937. Opened: May 27, 1937.

Speed limit is 45 mph. Do not go slowly and impede the normal flow of traffic. This will result in a ticket being issued by the CHP.

220m Total length: 8,981′ Width: 90′

The total length of galvanized steel wire used to fabricate both main cables is estimated to be 80,000 miles (130,000 km).

TollCars (southbound only) $7.50 (Pay by plate), $6.50 (FasTrak), $4.50 (carpools during peak hours, FasTrak only)

8,981 ft (2,737.4 m), about 1.7 mi (2.7 km)

The project cost more than $35 million,($493 million in 2016 dollars) completing ahead of schedule and $1.3 million under budget.

The Golden Gate Bridge, which spans the San Francisco Bay and connects the city to its northern suburbs, is one of the world's most famous structures. ... Bridgeworkers build a catwalk that connects the towers at both sides of the strait so they can attach the suspension cables to hold up the bridge.

Construction start: January 5, 1933. Construction end: April 19, 1937. Opened: May 27, 1937.

Is in san Francisco California... connecting San Francisco bay and the Pacific Ocean

The Golden Gate Bridge is a suspension bridge spanning the Golden Gate, the one-mile-wide (1.6 km) strait connecting San Francisco Bay and the Pacific Ocean. The structure links the U.S. city of San Francisco, California—the northern tip of the San Francisco Peninsula—to Marin County, carrying both U.S. Route 101 and California State Route 1 across the strait. It also carries pedestrian and bicycle traffic, and is designated as part of U.S. Bicycle Route 95. Being declared one of the Wonders of the Modern World by the American Society of Civil Engineers,[7] the bridge is one of the most internationally recognized symbols of San Francisco and California. It was initially designed by engineer Joseph Strauss in 1917. The Golden Gate Bridge Broke Records When it was built, the Golden Gate Bridge spanned 4,200 feet and staked its claim as the longest suspension bridge in the world. This is one of the most interesting facts about the Golden Gate Bridge because it held this record until 19

Thankfully, while Great Whites are numerous along the California coast, the menacing shark infrequently ventures under the Golden Gate Bridge to pay us a visit. However, there are 11 different species of shark that do call the San Francisco Bay home. Of these, at least five species live in the Bay year-round, breeding and giving birth here. https://baykeeper.org/news/column/sharks-san-francisco-bay

You also can pay with Fastrak transponders

Beautiful view both sides of the bridge, actually breathtaking views!

The Bridge is actually named for the Golden Gate Strait, the narrow entrance between the Pacific Ocean and the San Francisco Bay. The strait was named by explorer and U.S. Army officer John C. Frémont, who marveled at its beauty in 1846—two years before the discovery of gold in California.

The golden Gate Bridge was built in 1933 to connect San Francisco to Marin County. There had been plans to build the bridge for decades, however it faced opposition from unions, the military and the railway company which ran the ferries. Before the bridge, the only way to cross the Golden Gate straight was by ferry. San Francisco was one of the last major US cities to rely on ferry links and the route was increasingly struggling to keep up with rising demand, caused by San Franciscos growing population and higher rates of car ownership. The bridge aimed to relieve that demand, help the San Francisco economy and, to a lesser extent, demonstrate America's engineering and industrial prowess to the world.

Is 2737 meter in length if you cover it to miles it gives you around 1.7miles.

It connects San Francisco to Marin County

Construction start: January 5, 1933. Construction end: April 19, 1937. Opened: May 27, 1937.

What do you want to sell under the bridge? ;). Yes, the Bay connects to the Pacific via the Golden Gate strait

Yes you can take pictures at the lookout area

I took in the viewpoint and on the same bridge 🌉

Yes

They are communication dishes spanning San Francisco Bay. My personal opinion.

If your on a T-Rex you can do anything.

The golden gate Bridge has not collapsed since it was built in 1932. The closest it came was in may of 1987 when the bridge was closed and over 300,000 people walked on it and it visibly sank over 10 feet. Not even the loma prieta earthquake in 1989 collapsed the bridge. This is not to say that any number of Hollywood directors have destroyed the bridge for a movie.

Yes definitely

Yes, it is.

Yes!! 👍

I suppose

Joseph Strauss

Originally it was painted International Orange, with a lead primer and a lead-based topcoat. In 1968 it was replaced with an inorganic zinc silicate primer and vinyl topcoats to resist the advancing corrosion more effectively. This work took until 1995 to complete. In between this, in 1990, the topcoat was changed from a vinyl to an acrylic emulsion to meet air quality (Volatile Organic Compounds or VOC) requirements.

January 5, 1933

Beautiful

No

I came to see this famous bridge for the first time in my life and there were several movies

Yes there is

No

Wire ropes and trusses out of steel

May 27. 1937

Yes, there are many places to stop and enjoy. There are parks, museums, trails, the ocean and bay to view

Tourists can go to bridge view location. Also they can park the car in the parking and can also go for a walk at the bridge

It is like a dream for those of us who visit it from another state, for me it was very meaningful to walk along the shore, run and wait for the night there on the bridge, I didn't want to leave.

touristic. Beach but this time the water is too cold, not like those in Mexico.

To get to the other side, Marin County.

The area around the Bay and the bridge gets super foggy...they wanted a color that stood out so the bridge would be visible but still look good. The color is actually called International Orange.

Not at the bridge but plenty of them around nearby

Forever!

shoottt. im responding for the points but people just want to be nice(not really most of this world is terrible(if not the entire)) and help other people boost their points

Golden gate Park is very large. Technically part of the park is near the bridge but most of the park is quite a ways away. I would definitely look on Google maps and plan out your trip that way. If you stay near Golden gate bridge that'll put you close to a lot of things but not most of the park. My recommendation would be to stay near fisherman's wharf as there will be a lot of things within walking distance although not the park. But there is great transportation for around town such as buses and electric trolleys. You can also rent various forms of electronic bikes and scooters to get around town as well. Hope this helps.

Near the Golden Gate Bridge, the waters have depths of more than 300 feet, for example, and the depth is more than 100 feet between Angel Island and Alcatraz

No..

Atleast 500 miles

Parks and view points are open

Yes, off course you can is beautiful place to see

Yes, there was Joseph DeAngelo, who was a former police officer who came to be known as the Golden State Killer in the 70s and 80s,

ITS UNIQUE!! NO OTHER LIKE IT!! BEAUTIFUL STRUCTURE!!

Yes. Some of the exhibits are wrapped for protection, and the food counter is not open, but all the trails and the Bridge itself are open and accessible. There are social distancing guidelines on the bridge but I had no problem with that.

If you're ok to bear cold at night then you can park the truck in GG overlook area from other side of Alexander Ave. If you've great DSLR camera with high power lense, then you can get great shots from Twin Peaks as well.

Yes

Yes walk through

The bridge itself is not humming per se, but the wind that whistles through the cables makes a peculiar Humm similar to strumming a violin , as well as tires on the roadway, contribute to the vibration.

This world-famous bridge is called the Golden Gate Strait, a narrow, turbulent stretch of water, 300 feet deep under the bridge that connects the Pacific Ocean in the west to the San Francisco Bay in

Do visit + you will love it

Yes no problem

No it's no taller.

The construction ended on April 19, 1937, and the bridge opened on May 27, 1937.

No. The Golden Gate Bridge is a single deck.

Sorry, I don't understand Spanish.

Not at all

I do not know where you can rent a bike.

Theodore Roosevelt from 1903 to 1914

If you can cross the bridge, there are several toll booths, but everything is electronically charged, there are no people in the cabin! , if you have fastrak, you can go to any bridge in California, but if you do not have fastrak ... only here in the Golden Gate Bridge can you pass it like this, but they take a picture of the plates and send you The bridge receipt is $ 5 or $ 6 dollars for crossing the bridge, for San Francisco, I hope it helped you in this question.👍

Toll fee of $5 if you have fastrack. It's $8 if you don't. And it's more for bigger automobiles or vehicles with more than regular 2 Axles. 2 Axles/ Motorcycles $8.00 3 Axles $24.00 $21.00 4 Axles $32.00 $28.00

Okay thanks

The bridge is 1.6km connecting San Francisco Bay and the Pacific ocean. Total length 2737m and elevation height 67m

4 years - 1933 to 1937

There is no toll that I'm aware of. We drove straight over!

Is big and worth the visit https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_Gate_Bridge

Construction started in 1933 and it was opened on May 27, 1937 for public.

There's a toll before going into San Francisco

Yes it is a landmark of san Francisco

2.7 km or 1.7 miles

Yes unless you are traveling north

The most pictures are take from the parking place at the seite which is not San Francisco City. The other pictures are taking from a hill near the parking place.

The long Span between the 2 columns used to be a world record... The ocean, the views are breathtaking !

Vista Point on the Marin side

2737 meters

The structure, construction, engineering, and the history around the time. I recommend see a history of construction on internet, is very awesome. And this bridge support all day the traffic of bay area (very very heavy).

If they are open

A whole lot of people

In english ?

Superman save school bus there

It took 3 hours to travel from the bike rental shop, across the bridge and back to the shop. We were on regular bikes

1933 - 1937

Probably decent weather! But, it is always more windy and a bit cooler than the city out there. It will also start to get cooler earlier out there. So, if you plan to be there after ~4-5pm then bring a jacket.

All Electronic Tolling by FasTrak license plate recognition makes it quicker to cross the Golden Gate Bridge southbound into San Francisco

Irving Morrow & Charles Alton were the architects.

Yes

Officially 8,901 feet or over 2 miles. We walked to midpoint and took pictures. Plus stay to the water side so bikes can get by.

Sorry, no idea 🤔

The golden gate bridge is located north of San Francisco and connects San Francisco with the neighboring county of Marin. There is a fee entering San Francisco and they do not accept cash anymore. Great place to take pictures and walk. Early morning may have fog and drive in the appropriate lane when driving at a reduced speed. Best of luck.

Primary Contractors for the construction of the Golden Gate Bridge were: Marin and San Francisco Tower Piers: Pacific Bridge Company. Anchorages and Approach Piers: Barrett & Hilp. Structural Steel of Suspension Span and Towers:McClintic-Marshall Corporation, a subsidiary of Bethlehem Steel Corporation.

Never heard anything.

Architects Irving Morrow and Charles Ellis!

I just left from here yesterday

No

Si sales de San francisco nada pero si entras cuesta 7 u 8 dolares, fines de semana creo no cobran ni días feriados, pero te sugiero que lo cheques. Vale cada dólar cruzar ida y regreso

South Towers are the towers on the city side. North towers are on the Marine county side of the bridge

No way, even if you tried

I thought so

San Francisco and Sausalito

The Golden Gate Bridge connects the city of San Francisco to Marin County, California. Marin County includes the cities of Sausalito, Muir Beach, Stinson Beach, San Rafael, Novato, Mill Valley, and many others.

no paid

Ask the engineer who made it

I would like to visit that place... Someday :')

You have to pay to go across the bridge, they send a bill to the vehicle's registered address.

It took just over 4 years to build the golden gate bridge, and apparently the painting of the bridge was directed by a man called Rocky Dellarocca and it supposedly took them 2 decades!

I have no idea, but I believe it must have been there years ago

The color was chosen when they built the bridge as a reflection of the colors in the landscape at the time. It has stayed that way ever since as the bridge with it's rust color is considered iconic worldwide.

It's actually called International Orange & the color was selected by consulting architect Irving Morrow because it complements the natural surroundings and enhances the bridge's visibility in fog.

Well interesting enough the way the bridge is designed actually it will probably never fail it will probably stand up to a big big earthquake in the little park right next to it has the design of how the bridge actually works it's very cool you should go check it out

Muir Woods National Monument In the fictional tales, the apes have made Muir Woods their home, even though the film was actually shot in British Columbia. The Muir Woods National Monument, perhaps better known simply as the Redwood Forest, spans 12 miles north of San Francisco in Marin County

The bridge is 8,981 feet long (1.7 miles) and contains about 83,000 tons of steel. The total weight of the bridge is 887,000 tons. There are two towers that hold up the two steel cables anchoring the bridge. Also, there are approximately 80,000 miles of wire inside each of the two steel cables.

You have to walk it, the view is beautiful until you see the former Alcatraz jail, only that it is usually cold so you have to be safe

Relevancy?

You know you could have just GOOGLED THAT! Everyone that answered you just did........

Bethlehem steel

Free

Is not paid

Yep

84 (bridge has been open on May 24th, 1987)

To cross the water??

88 years but their always repainting and repairing Constantly

It's a very good bridge and it looks nice. It's a landmark that is synonymous with San Francisco. So when you take a picture there, people will know you did San Francisco!

Everyone can use it. A big tourist destination.

Yes, I park

Yes you can

It is named after the Golden Gate Strait the 300 foot deep stretch of water of the entry of the bay it spans.

None

Gravity, and wind

Golden gate strait

Wind,water,and earth movement

Due it its significance during the great depression, the Golden Gate Bridge signifies a Magnificent man made structure that is made out of cables. Binding wires [thick guage] gives it the strength to suspend the bridge weight instead of building on top of the water. Due to high sizemic activity for the region, the design made sense to withstand earthquakes.

In 1937

May 27, 1937 Opened..

The best things about the golden gate is going to the top of the mountain and see how beatiful the sea and the city looks!I recomend to go during night time..

To add onto what the others have said, "golden" refers to "The Golden State" (California). The state is called that because of the 1840's gold rush.

It took 4 years I believe.

It's a visual aid for aliens to land in the bay.

1.7 miles

No , this is original golden bridge, only sometimes get fixed and maintenance.

It's never closes

Actually its maintenance, the material, the color has to be retouch constantly.

746 feet

It was finished in 1937

I think it was about 20 years. They finished in May 1937

It's been rebuilt, Godzilla is technically not a dinosaur

I'm sure grimlock would be fine and the road also ,the golden gate bridge can handle it.

If only Google knew...

golden gate bridge vista point is free

San Fransisco

Yes

A photo is taken of your southbound trip's license plate and an invoice will be mailed. $8.40. You can prepay by an account.

Architectural design: Irving Morrow Engineering design: Joseph Strauss and Charles Ellis

The bridge was officially opened to public on May 27, 1937. It's construction ended on April 19, 1937.

2.737 km long and 90m wide

This is a good resource. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_Gate_Bridge If you look at photos, you may be able to count . I count Four piers including the access entrances.

Everyone seems to think the bridge took much longer to build, but the Golden Gate Bridge took just over four years to build. Construction began in January 0f 1933 and was open to automobile traffic in May of 1937.Mar 23, 2010

Free to go

It's a nice place, you get a great view of San Francisco City. To know more about history and meaning take pont row. Just looking at it is just a bridge.

It's a bridge over a body of water, that's probably about, i guess 3 to 5 miles long?

Me I'm thinking about it ah!about you?

The entire bridge is made out of 24K Gold.

Of course, you can! But you may not!

April 19, 1937

Joseph Strauss came up with the idea to build the bridge.

In English please?

Next exit after the bridge.

27 May 1937

Galvanized Steel - Each cable is made of 27,572 strands of wire. The total length of galvanized steel wire used to fabricate both main cables is estimated to be 80,000 miles (130,000 km). Each of the bridge's two towers has approximately 600,000 rivets.

Presidio

11 an outstanding achievement for its time death tolls on a bridge like that at that time were usually in the hundreds, the Oakland bay bridge that opened six months earlier had a death toll of 28. https://www.history.com/news/6-things-you-may-not-know-about-the-golden-gate-bridge

The Golden Gate is so magnificent that this building was so sharp a hundred years ago. Can be pedestrians and driving. You can also touch the steel shovel with your hand. It’s so good. It is one of the landmarks.

Its not a river

I did not know it collapsed. When did it do that?

Yes, you can! There's also a tourist center from where you can get souvenirs.

The bridge was made to absorb the amount of traffic after World War I. The traffic raised by 7x and the ferries were not enough.

Basically is related to the fact that is the narrowest entrances of San Francisco bay and the Pacific Ocean, and is beautiful as gold.

I stayed in Lombard plaza motel, depends if you have a car or not. Cheap and close to the bridge

It's somehow after the passageway discovered by an explorer

Yes

The deck is at 220' the towers are at like 750'

Not

Yes

You can Walk. Why the Hell would you want to Bungee Jumb on a National Treasure and a Transportation Bridge that is So High that you can kill yourself! Are you Nuts? Read up on Facts n information of this Bridge!!

Connects San Francisco to Sausalito.

Also, depending on the angle and the day the red paint reflects a bit gold in the sunset. Most bridges are just the standard metal but this one right here is constantly being painted it's unique color. By the time they reach the end they start all over again.

Maybe it depends on what time you think you can get there

It's a wonderful structure ever created; Driving out of San Francisco via the Golden Gate Bridge gives you chills. The road itself it's a nice place to drive. You are able to see Alcatraz on one side on the open ocean on the other.

There are two companies that I suggest to check into Hornblower Cruises and events is the first one. They do cocktail cruises dinner and brunch cruises all of them will cruise by and around the golden gate bridge alcatraz treasure island bay bridge and the giants stadium on game days. The other is oh shoot I forget their name but it's like the blue and gold fleet or red something they are just bay tours boats nothing fancy about them both can be found on the embarcadero. Hornblower also has their offices on the santa rosa which is open to the public you can tour the historic ferry boat and go upstairs on the roof to take pictures at pier 3

Yes there is parking iutside of visitor center, yes you can walk with kids is safe, there are many view to choose from. Once you get there you will have an idea of the views.

Coit Tower also gives you a great view of all of the Bay. Great history info. Golden Gate Park is beautiful. And if you go down to the base of Golden Gate Bridge, there is quite a bit to see and experience.

The bridge is named for the Golden Gate Strait.

In 1933

Red, of course !

For all types of vehicles.

I haven't seen any ghosts or heard anything when I walk on the golden bridge. Perhaps you can Google the topic and see what you find out.

What you asking

The bridge is named for the Golden Straigh that is the gateway body of water leading into the SF Bay.

I'm sorry I'm not good at English

It opened May 27 1937

11 construction workers died. Let me know how much the bridge was built.

It is no cost to cross. You can walk but it is windy so bring a jacket!

Yes, bicicle, foot, running, car.... Everything

It was completed on April 19,1937 and opened on may 27 ,1937

The Golden gate is a suspension bridge.

the most iconic bridge in the united states, great view and bike ride

Construction began on January 5, 1933. The construction of the bridge cost more than USD 35 million. The chief engineer of the project was Joseph Strauss. Strauss remained at the head of the project, supervising the construction day by day and made some innovative contributions

More than you & I can lift safely.

About 4years

Yes that is wonderful😃

The Bridge is actually named for the Golden Gate Strait, the narrow entrance between the Pacific Ocean and the San Francisco Bay. The strait was named by explorer and U.S. Army officer John C. Frémont, who marveled at its beauty in 1846—two years before the discovery of gold in California.

To the other side

I've been told the bridge was built to connect San Francisco to Marin County. Before it was opened in 1937, the only way was by ferry.

2,7km

Zero to go on bridge but you pay for parking a car,

Wel, it didn't, did it?

I have no idea. Sorry

Yes, the website may say when it's closed or not, but other than that I think it's open all the time

15 to 20 minutes each way

There is parking place available close by to the bridge

Sorry I'm Spanish and I can't understand the word "conlesrone" so I can't help you

Ohh.. sad to hear

Free pedestrian use.

Engineers in collaboration with builders

Not much, just the slightly movement of the cars driving by. There is a tire barrier and a fence to serve has protection for the pedestrians walking on the bridge. Good luck!

No it originally from here in San Francisco.

Golden Gate bridge is named after Golden Gate Strait.

go visit Hawk hill through the tunnel, there is a really great view ;)

3 weights

what serves as support or base is submerged in steel and concrete in the sea with two central steel blades its suspended in steel cable system an execional work

It is usually cold and windy. I recommend wearing many layers to make you feel comfortable.

These are just a few- https://theculturetrip.com/north-america/usa/california/articles/7-great-movie-moments-featuring-the-golden-gate-bridge/

Built in 1933. 86 years old.

Because so many people jump to their death ☠

just another beautiful day as usual at Golden Gate bridge

Google says, "Construction of the Golden Gate Bridge started in 1933. The bridge, which was designed by engineer Joseph Strauss was built to connect San Francisco with Marin County across the 1600 meter (+5000ft) wide strait known as the Golden Gatewhich links the San Francisco Bay with the Pacific Ocean."

It's painted international orange (hence golden) and the towers look like gates

Please go through local rules and regulations.

The Architect was Irving Morrow.

Built in 1937

The most amazing!

I was w a tour group, so guess it was part of our tour.

No

Gold is too soft to serve as actual structural metal for the bridge. However, the entire bridge could be wrapped in Gold Leaf and it would shine for the golden State!😎😎😎

No, it's a bridge

It had to be built to join two corners of San Franscisco. Otherwise if it was for show then it would have been opened only for pedestrian and cyclist and not for cars, trucks and other big vehicles.

It has happened but it is not usual.

Because it is suspended on a set of cables

It's called the Golden Gate bridge because it spans across the strait of Golden Gate! Until the 1840s the strait was called Boca del Puerto de San Francisco (Mouth of the Port of San Francisco) but got the name Golden Gate on 1 July, 1846 from the memoirs of John C Fremont who named it the Golden Gate (as in the golden gate to trade with the Orient) .. (Fremont was also the first ever Presidential candidate of the Republican Party!)

Golden Gate bridge , si red golden

Huh??? 🤔🤔🤔

I don't if there a way to cross the Bridge using Muni pass Check on this website https://www.sfmta.com

It is the "proteckting paint" it was calld " bleimenning"" in the old days...

Some time ago

Inauguration on May 27 1937 for pedestrians. But the next day May 28 1937 for cars. This year 2019 May 27 will mark the 82nd anniversary of the inauguration.

Often surrounded in fog, always windy, and there's a fascinating documentary about suicides snd the bridge.

This is actually quite a good question, and one that I don't know if there is a concrete answer for. Although some times with the sun's reflection some days it looks somewhat gold

86 years, was build during 1933-1937

You can find complete information, even pictures at www.goldengatebridge.org. and www.history/topics/landmarks/golden-gate-bridge

Just over 4 years.

If you ask how long Golden Gate is -1.7 miles

San Francisco

What kind of this question ????

San Francisco and Oakland

The GGB holds a big iconic significance in American history. Its construction generated a big boost in employment during America's Great Depression.

Ditto

Golden Gate Bridge opened to traffic on May 28, 1937. They held "Pedestrian Day" on May 27, 1937.

You can see construction news here: http://goldengate.org/news/bridge/Construction-Alerts.php

It is often compared to the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, US, because they are both suspension bridges of similar color. It was built by the American Bridge Company which constructed the San Francisco–Oakland Bay Bridge, but not the Golden Gate https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/25_de_Abril_Bridge

The Golden Gate is a strait on the west coast of North America that connects San Francisco Bay to the Pacific Ocean.[2] It is defined by the headlands of the San Francisco Peninsula and the Marin Peninsula, and, since 1937, has been spanned by the Golden Gate Bridge. The entire shoreline and adjacent waters throughout the strait are managed by the Golden Gate National Recreation Area.[3]

Its depend where are you. But the golden gate bridge its free

When it was built, I don't know. Up it's still up

I'm not familiar with the just stats but there always bike cops on the bridge and I believe a mesh net of some kind to prevent that. Even if they had a more surveillance it's hard to know when someone is in tha state of mind.

That's when they finished building it?

just curious

Not as of yesterday

From Google: Of eleven men killed from falls during construction, ten were killed on February 17, 1937, when the bridge was near completion and the net failed under the stress of a scaffold that had fallen."

I can not answer I do not know that data

Realistically you have to either leave the city to use it or take it in (if you're heading in from the south). It's actually located outside the city.

Go to the city

Yes

About 4 years, from Jan 1933 till March 1997.

No no no.....

The color is called International Orange. It is Primer coat applied before applying any oil based paint color. The reason it was left with International Orange is, it is visible even in dense fog which covers the bridge most of the time.

January 1933.

2,737 meters, and takes roughly 30-40 minutes walk one way

What is the question??

I thought its golden as it appears now.

Not a river. To the West is the Pacific Ocean. To the east is the San Francisco Bay. It crosses over where they meet, at the mouth of the bay.

Only English

From where? I just drove to it. Then parked at the national Park at the edge of the bridge and walked around.

It is grandiose and impressive

san francisco California

The times vary from sidewalks from east to west. Your best bet is to check the schedule on your visit there

What language does Chavo speak?

This depends on the time and the season. But there are a lot of locals which cycle over the bridge and a lot of tourists.

You cannot pay cash. It's all electronic now. May also pay by liscense plate

International Orange

Four years.

Unfortunately yes, but the nee suicide prevention barrier is being installed that will stop it. The bridge itself is not haunted.

You can't stop on the bridge. But alot if you could

It cost me 8 and I crossed it twice back and forth, but thet send it to my house. I think if you cross it and get send the bill to your address its cheaper then to pay at the toll and its faster too.

It started in 1916.

Yes, obviously.

Misterious

According to Google- Just over four years. Construction commenced on January 5, 1933 and the Bridge was open to vehicular traffic on May 28, 1937

Public transportation: bus 28

About 1.5 Billion dollars.

Engineer Joseph Strauss originally pleaded for a boring gray, the navy for a clearly visible black and yellow. In the end, the architect Irving Foster Morrow prevailed. He was responsible for the aesthetic design of the bridge. He designed the lighting system and decided on the bright red-orange bridge color "International Orange", which is basically just an anti-rust color. Because the humid, salty air from the sea is ceaselessly affecting the bridge, rust is a bigger enemy for the bridge today than earthquakes or storms.

Opened to traffic May, 1937.

11 workers. I guess they were all Americans.

If about 1.6 km

The golden gate length is 2.737 in kilometers

I crossed the bridge riding I bike. Im not a regular biker, but it was so incredible I was not even tired. I was fullfiled with joy. And Sausalito, by the other side, os so nice. You can take a ferry back to SF, with your bike on.

Its a public accesable road, so you wont have to pay anything when you visit it

Golden gate is longer but Forth bridge (Scotland) was built earlier...

It's free if you spend it walking by bike.

May 28th 1937.

Started 1933finished 1937

The name of the bridge is originated in the name of the strait it bridges. On July 1, 1846, two years before the discovery of gold in California U.S. Army Captain John C. Fremont gazed at the narrow strait that separates the Bay for the Pacific Ocean. Like many others coming to this place Fremont was gripped by a vision of the future. He saw the establishment of towering cities on this wild shore. He envisioned processions of ships coming and going on long trade routes to Asia. Like the ancient harbor of Byzantium at the crossroads between Europe and Asia, this too would surely become a center of world commerce. For the mighty portals giving entrance to this harbor Fremont conceived an inspired name: Golden Gate. “I gave [it] the name Chrysopylae, or Golden Gate, for the same reason that the harbor of Byzantium was called Chrysoceras or Golden Horn,” he later wrote. Copy & pasted from Quora

Construction began in 1933 and by May of 1937 automobiles for driving across it

It was named after the "Golden Gate Strait" near the San Francisco Bay.

Its red

Haven't seen the movie but the Golden Gate Bridge is really worth a visit

It's not

The Bridge is actually named for the Golden Gate Strait, the narrow entrance between the Pacific Oceanand the San Francisco Bay.

In the golden age, that's why it is called "golden" gate bridge 😉

They began building on January 5th 1933 and was opened to vehicular traffic on May 28th 1937

The Bridge is actually named for the Golden Gate Strait, the narrowentrance between the Pacific Ocean and the San Francisco Bay. And the Bridge's official color is International Orange.

This looks like a question for Reddit or quora :)

The color is not red but international orange!It was painted with this color to be seen when the fog is coming.It could have been painted in gold if D. Trump had decided to paint it ☺.Aren t the gates a figure of speech as you enter a strait??😁😁

San Francisco California, is about 30 minutes from Downton

Ok

Possible three minutes in a car and it's 1.5 miles on foot (single-handed, 3 miles total). I recommend a couple of hours.

To an engineer

And

Both walk and bike. But since it's windy and cold make sure to keep a jacket. It's amazing to see ocean views , the engineering of the bridge and if you are lucky a ship crossing the bridge.

nothing special, it's nice!

I do'n know

Yes you can and it's about a 40 min walk

Sure why not !!!

To get to the other side.

An impressive achievement in the middle of the great depression

You can also Bike on the Bridge

Sorry i only understand English

It is a landmark of California and San Francisco. I am sure there are bigger and prettier bridges around the world but if you are in the San Francisco Bay area take a look at it. It is very windy there and you can clearly see the Alcatraz Old Prison.

I was never in the wiew

Check with uber or lyft then one can get exact time of reaching the destination

In the afternoon around 12.30 to 1.00 ok

Yes

Please translate

Yes but the bicyclist and pedestrians share the walkway so be careful.

It kinda overlooks a nude beach as you drive on it...so I wouldn't be surprised if any of that goes on just below it🌁🏖

"International Orange"🍊

Not even close. It's only the fourth longest bridge in the San Francisco Bay area. There are many bridges longer overall than the GGB. Also, Brenda was only partly right, it's the second longest *suspension* bridge (which are ranked by their main span length) in the U.S.

1.7 miles

Ya walking lane is there on both sides

Started Jan 1933. But opened May 27th In 1937. I was there for its 81st birthday

It is named after the Golden Strait that it is built upon

No shops are on the golden gate, all the shops are on pier 39, fisherman's warf😉

Same reason any bridge is constructed - to create safe passage between two previously separated areas, sometimes the separation is a trainyard or an interstate. In this case it's a wide sea channel.

Thanks Oskar. I think I saw the wrong bridge in between the buildings. It must have been the Bay Bridge.

Cross the straits

Haha... Yes of course. I am 250 pounds and it took me an hour to cross. Stop if you feel tired thats it. Believe me the scenic beauty will engulf you and you will never know how you crossed the bridge in no time. Btw i did a tonand fro in 1hr 30mins.... You can too 😀😀😀😀. Have a great time!!

The construction of the golden gate bridge started in 1933 and was completed four years later ( in 1937).

Probably. But probably wouldn't stand out as much as it does now as a result.

Tears... And metal

I'm sorry but there isn't much you can do in your position sorry but I hate to burst both your bubbles I highly doubt either of those things are being processed.Have A Good Day

"The Golden Gate Strait is the entrance to the San Francisco Bay from the Pacific Ocean.  The strait is approximately three-miles long by one-mile wide with currents ranging from 4.5 to 7.5 knots.  It is generally accepted that the strait was named "Chrysopylae", or Golden Gate, by John C. Fremont, Captain, topographical Engineers of the U.S. Army circa 1846.  It reminded him of a harbor in Istanbul named Chrysoceras or Golden Horn."

Let's say about 150 Lol

What??? no

There is a walkway where pedestrians walk.

The Bridge is actually named for theGolden Gate Strait, the narrow entrance between the Pacific Ocean and the San Francisco Bay. The strait was named by explorer and U.S. Army officer John C. Frémont, who marveled at its beauty in 1846—two years before the discovery of gold in California

What many people who live outside of California link with what is located IN California, is the Golden Gate Bridge. Not only a symbol of California, but also an icon of San Francisco. Before 1937, who knows? Hollywood is also an icon of California and Los Angeles.

Yes. Not sure what the statistics are... Was one suicide attempt every 2 weeks on average. The bridge is open 24/7. There is now a rescue net below the span... goes out a few feet on both sides of the bridge.

No, it is free.

A bunch of guys

No. It has always been International Orange. It crosses the Golden Gate. That is the name for the entrance to San Francisco Bay from the Pacific ocean. John C. Fremont choose the name 'Chrysopylae', or 'Golden Gate' before the discovery of gold in California because he recognized that the bay would be a strategic center for trade with Asia (just like Byzantium or Chrysoceras/golden horn was in antiquity).

A very good architect, geezzee , don't you have Google

In my viee, It's an marvelous example of the human work. And could be an inspiration for civil engineers for upcoming future.

Irving Morrow & Charles Alton Ellis designed the Golden gate bridge

Depends on where you live.

Irving Marrow and Charles Alton Ellis were the architects

Construction started in 1933, it opened in May of 1937.

He was an American structural engineer who revolutionized the design of bascule bridges. He was the chief engineer of the Golden Gate Bridge.

I believe the "golden" refers to the strait, not the bridge across it.

I think Vista point and Conzelman road (thou parking can be an issue) but you can go up and then slowly down (if u travel by car)

"More than 10 million people visit the Golden Gate Bridge each year. That translates, on average, to more than 27,000 visitors per day."

About 2/5th way from vista point. You can get great background with Alcatraz and SF high rise, if you are trying to take pictures. Other than that, almost everywhere on the bridge is pretty similar.
