My only opinion is that the bridge has probably been there longer than most people living in that town. If you move someplace with permanent or semi-permanent object which has some kind of a dominant presence, you should probably consider that fact before moving there. If you move to the remote mountains to escape the structure and industrial look of the city, and then someone dumps a rusty bridge in the back yard, well, maybe that's an issue. If it's been there the whole time, you kind of should accept it. Like if you move to Aberdeen Maryland, you should get used to the fact that the Army likes to blow things up there on the Army base, and well, sometimes that's early in the morning, sometimes late a night. It shakes the buildings and even might wake you up if you're a light sleeper...but then you're not going to ask them to stop blowing stuff up are you? I'm all for making cities an attractive place to live, but painting the bridge to make it pretty also removes the character and history, IMO. Kinda like when they demolished the original Penn Station in NYC to make that horrid new station with Madison square garden back in the 60's. Just because it's new and shiny doesn't always mean it looks better, or is better for the area...I'm sure picking up some trash and cleaning up around town would make more of a difference than painting a bridge over the water....[2c]
