Summary

Today’s the day work begins on the Golden Gate Bridge. 
Men and steel and concrete 
square off against 
fog and wind 
and pounding surf 
to build the world’s 
longest suspension bridge 
across the wild, 
surging waters 
where the ocean 
meets the bay. 
Impossible, people say. 
Never been done. 
You cross your fingers and hope. 
Built across a treacherous strait during the Great Depression, the Golden Gate Bridge was an unprecedented, awe-inspiring feat and truly a testament to the power of hope, perseverance, and human ingenuity to defy the odds.
