  • THE GOLDEN GATE BRIDGE: a LEGAL HISTORY by John S
    THE GOLDEN GATE BRIDGE: A LEGAL HISTORY By John S. Caragozian San Francisco teems with icons: Alcatraz, cable cars, the Transamerica Pyramid. The greatest is the Golden Gate Bridge, an engineering and aesthetic marvel. A railroad bridge across the Golden Gate was first suggested in 1872 by Charles Crocker, one of the “Big Four” founders of the company that had built the western portion of the transcontinental railroad. The railroad ended up with a different route to San Francisco, and the bridge idea faded. Over 40 years later, a University of California engineering graduate-turned-journalist proposed a bridge in several San Francisco Bulletin editorials, but World War I diverted public interest. The editorials, though, caught the attention of San Francisco City Engineer Michael O’Shaughnessy. In 1917, he asked a bridge engineer visiting from Chicago, Joseph Strauss, to evaluate the Golden Gate proposal. See generally, Stephen Cassady, Spanning the Gate (1986), at 13-16. Strauss understood that a bridge posed a political challenge as well as an engineering one. Was a bridge needed? On the one hand, few people lived north of the Golden Gate; for example, Marin County had barely 27,000 people per the 1920 census. On the other hand, growing automobile traffic was straining the ferries that were the only link across the Golden Gate. Moreover, a bridge would enhance San Francisco’s commercial prominence with a direct link north. In 1920, Strauss completed a Golden Gate Bridge proposal, including a design, budget, and revenue projections. With then-current technology, no suspension bridge could span the entire Golden Gate.
