metro ‘Large Marge’ by Alex Remington
or years before it opened, the Margaret BEST ARCHITECTURE OR LANDMARK Hunt Hill Bridge — called the Calatrava Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge bridge, named for famed Spanish bridge architect Santiago Calatrava — was dismissively written off as “the bridge to nowhere.” After all, what was West Dallas, anyway? As it turns out, a great shortcut to Oak Cliff, and the gateway to the hottest new eateries in town, at Trinity Groves. No one’s laughing now ... except maybe the photographers, who have made the iconic, graceful silhouette of “Large Marge” (her affectionate new nickname) one of the distinctive shapes of Dallas’ already potent skyline. — Arnold Wayne Jones
