Submission 3: Andrew Alfred-Duggan - cable-stayed "fists"

[junctionist]

If it's about being strange and "out there" then theoretically anything is acceptable, like maybe a combination of Art Nouveau and Brutalism.

Sorry, looks like left over Saddam Hussein statues:

I love the idea of prominent art pieces appearing to hold up the bridge at each end, that's wonderful but I'm not sure about the arms/fists. Given the winds down by the lake and our long cold winters I think it would be a good move forward to protect the bridge from the elements.

definitely unique + original ... but it may be a little too 'out there', likely not practical to materialize in TO

Submission#3: Good...but without the "fists"!

I think AA Duggan's design is interesting BUT those fists should be replaced by some tower design complimenting the adjacent CN tower - perhaps with a twin "Welcome To Toronto" sign. Not bad,though-LI MIKE

This bridge looks frustrated! Why's it pulling its hair out so?! Must be from all the noise and tacky neighbours...

 

[Nebakenezer]

Awesome, I love it.. makes you totally snap out of daily routine thinking.

But overkill for this application. Especially since the cables are dummy cables.

I'm fussy

I love this idea, It's kooky and it works. I'm not sure you have space for the support on the north side. You're in my top 4.

 

[Art Vandelay]

for some reason this bridge conjures up Saddam Hussein's Swords of victory arch.

I was going to say the same.

The fists are a too ridiculous for me. Looks more like a bridge from Disney Land or something.
