San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge

The longest (and most expensive) bridge in the world when it opened in 1936, the Bay Bridge was first proposed by self-proclaimed "Emperor Norton I" in 1869.

Bay Bridge has been turned into the latest and by far the biggest backdrop for artist Leo Villareal, who programmed 25k lights spaced a foot apart to create the world's largest illuminated sculpture

North of the bridge, there is an open area by the water. You can use the railing to steady your camera, then catch the whole bridge in frame. After sunset there are great reflections off of the water.

One of the few double deck bridges in the Bay Area. Great route that takes you to Treasure Island/Yerba Buena Island and straight into Oakland. Traffic on this bridge tends to be very congested.

There is no way to avoid the horrible traffic, especially when everybody wants to cross this amazing work of engineering. The new Bay Bridge looks stunning.

Muy bonito para ver y fotografiar, sobre todo de noche, ya que está lleno de LEDs que van cambiando. Recomiendo réflex con largas exposiciones

The entire bridge still IS the bay bridge, just this one span was renamed. And I bet you can't say who it was named for before, so don't let it get you so down. The bridge is still the bay bridge.

Tuesday Trivia! In which year were priority lanes for HOV introduced, encouraging bus and carpool use?

Get here when the lights go on, just as the sun is setting and you can take great photos.

The new bridge is so cool and every time I cross it I'm always blown away by how large it is

Instead of getting frustrated with the traffic when you're headed into the city, take a second and admire the ridiculous view that is SF. Bonus points for a clear night to enjoy it.

Poorly titled. "Bay Bridge" is the familiar name for the entire bridge *system* linking San Francisco and Oakland, and comprising both Western *and* Eastern spans. See http://www.emperorsbridge.org

I love driving over this bridge in the direction of San Francisco!

If it's raining and your leaving SF, your covered by the inbound traffic. If your headed into SF, the toll is $5 and if it's raining keep your eyes on the road please, stop reading this :-o

awesome great view specially at night!!

Hopefully you’re not driving, but you can take some good pictures of the Bay from this bridge.

Check out the one and only longitudinal allan truss brace on the bay bridge over Main St! Now that's some structural jargon right there.

It may not be the Golden Gate, but it's still awesome, especially at night. And it's about 100% less likely to be covered in fog, no matter the time of day.

estuve un dia en san francisco y es un lugar tan bello el puente es tan imprecionante wow

Give it a little credit. This bridge suffers from an inferiority complex, due to its brother being one of the most popular bridges in the world.

Drive on the far right lane when traveling westbound so your passenger can catch great views of SF!

A beautiful bridge especially at night from the distance, but traffic is a nightmare

Great views of the Bay! The western span is beautiful to cross especially at night

Run, run as fast as you can.. You can't catch me I'm the Ginger Bread Man!

The bridge looks new but still scary knowing it had collapsed in the past and killed people underneath the bridge. 😓

The bike trail on the eastern span. Spectacular views and a fun ride

Scenery is nice.

Oh the agony!

Great view of the bay and the city, you will need to pay $4 toll!

Look for the holes in the fence to take your pictures through.

Istanbul Bogazici koprusu kadar olmasa da harika bir kopru:))

Don't take pictures while driving... You'll get a ticket. Also don't speed on the pedestrian bridge... You'll get a ticket too.

Finally after years if waiting and scandals galore the bridge is awe inspiring and awesome.

Great views! You can see how much went into this bridge.

You know you want a picture/video. Please let your passenger do it. For all of our sakes.

My favorite way to get to San Francisco. Recommend the fast lane.

After 4 days on the road finally hit some traffic but it not that bad then pay the toll over the long bridge thu trassure Island finally into foging city of SF and that where I-80 end then Hwy 101.

Cok sıcak bir sehir gorulmeye deger..romantik..

Best new bridge in the world. Best view at night time.

it's beautiful and the views of the bay and sf are stunning...glad it finally is finished yay!!

I like the view and the area, much more calm than pier 39

Great light display. Best view from the Embarcadero.

Tenete la faccia incollata al finestrino, la vista è stupenda! E comunque guidare su un ponte così è un'esperienza!

At night when the bridge is lit up, it is magnificent.

Don't ask the toll operator for directions, EVER! PLEASE and thank you! Its annoying and it seems to happen all too often.

Fastpass is required for Carpool and remember don't speed, CHP are always keeping an close eye on everything

The series of lights on the Bay Bridge suspension cables were added in 1986 as part of the bridge's 50th-anniversary celebration

Pictures are always great to take. As long as you're a passanger!
