The Dallas skyline was always one of my favorite views, especially at night, but what made this video memorable to me was when you travelled down I-30 east from the I-30/I-45 interchange on (where it becomes the R.L. Thorton Freeway). That was the exact route we would take to visit family when they lived in east Dallas. When you drove under the overpasses for Jim Miller Rd. and St. Francis Ave., I started having happy flashbacks, as these were the exits we took to get to my aunt and uncle's house. Thanks for sharing and helping me to remember my childhood.

Amazing ride, loved of course the "high five" and the views of Dallas! Concerning the Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge, it's very spectacular, and, a interesting think, Santiago Calatrava has designed a similar bridge in Italy above the A1 and the high speed train line (in one of my future videos). Good job, as usual!

i would love seeing something like that bridge built for 285/75 where it crosses the chattahoochee - for 75 especially, it's pretty wide because of the island splitting the river in two where the freeway crosses. would help bring more attention to what is basically our riverfront.

I do agree The Canyon could use a makeover and then some; but it's a classic road and the costs and congestion would be outrageous. Hopefully, if the Rangers get a new stadium or if Texas starts allowing casinos, the Transportation Department might be inspired to rebuild.
