    I was watching a program (god knows when) and part of it was on this bridge for london. The bridge was suposed to be made entirly of glass and not metal, not even as support. The whole thing was to be made for glass and some kinda glue.

    I have done a bit or searching and came up empty, anyone seen anything on it, i am a bit ciruios.. a link would be ns if someone can find one

    I remember hearing about this too. It was in the Sunday Times a few years ago. Its a pretty cool concept but I'm sure its costs are going to be sky high. Be a bloody cool architectural point of interest though.

    Edit:

    Just found this.

    From this link it sounds like the idea is new but I did read about this before and it was a good good while ago.

    make for some good movie scenes with car driving through it, or it exploding á la Independence Day, but my thoughts are wandering cos it's early, I'm writing again and haven't finished my coffee
