This photo of the Linn Cove Viaduct was taken on the Blue Ridge Parkway in North Carolina. The viaduct was opened to traffic on September 11, 1987 exactly 52 years after construction of the Parkway began and represented the final link of the Blue Ridge Parkway. The Linn Cove Viaduct is 1243 feet long and 35 feet wide. The 'S' curve roadbed rests upon seven (7) vertical piers that are spaced about 180 feet apart. Notice the vivid fall colors, one has to love it!
