Gant Bridge is an iconic landmark of [[San Fierro]], [[State of San Andreas|San Andreas]], connecting [[Juniper Hollow]] and [[Palisades]] in San Fierro to [[Tierra Robada]] and [[Bayside]]. Spanning [[San Fierro Bay]], the bridge also serves as the eastern gateway to the waterways which divide San Andreas state. | |||
The bridge is clearly modeled after the [[wp:Golden Gate Bridge|Golden Gate Bridge]] in San Francisco, but is shorter and tends to be bathed only in low fog. Like the Golden Gate Bridge, Gant Bridge is a suspension bridge supported by two pillars and painted International Orange. Other similarities include a [[Tollbooths|toll plaza]] on the San Fierro side, and a large steel latticework structure supported by concrete and built over [[Jizzy's Pleasure Domes|an old fort]] at [[Battery Point]] and into the hillside, providing the anchorage on the San Fierro side. | |||
Other than the similarity to the Golden Gate Bridge, the Gant Bridge is not a particularly necessary roadway in the city, given the presence of the [[Garver Bridge]] to the east. The small freeway that comes of the bridge in San Fierro ends unexpectedly on a relatively minor road in [[Downtown San Fierro]], instead of connecting with something more major. | Other than the similarity to the Golden Gate Bridge, the Gant Bridge is not a particularly necessary roadway in the city, given the presence of the [[Garver Bridge]] to the east.
