When I saw the photos of the top five designs of the proposed Ala Wai pedestrian bridge in Waikiki, I was shocked to see the “sail tower” was one of them. While it is the prettiest of the bunch, does no one think that having a sail on it near water and wind (and wind tunnels created by tall buildings in the area) will cause problems later after several storms hit it?
A simple design is much better in the long run.
