The Bay Bridge Steel Program, being administered by Oakland Museum of California, will make steel from the original 1936 East Span of the Bay Bridge available for repurposing and reuse in public art projects throughout California. The program’s intent is not only to preserve elements of the bridge, but also its legacy as a major landmark and historic icon. Specific elements sourced from the bridge spans will be salvaged, repaired and cleaned to an established industry standard before reuse.  Photo by Sam Burbank
