In the UK we, rightly, hold his creations up as great feats of engineering. You’ll often hear people say we need to get back to that sort of thing, which I agree with.
Sadly many projects that could become those great icons in the future now get killed by (often the same) people complaining about wasting money and not wanting it built near them.
I wonder how those projects were viewed when proposed and being built and what we can learn about our current approach in the UK.
I often think people feel the UK is “done” and we shouldn’t strive to built new things.
