Construction Gallery - Las Vegas,
Nevada.

Again looking west from the Convention Center. Some of these track
sections are 114 feet long.
Looking across Paradise Road at the Convention Center pedestrian
bridge.
Monorails can go around, through or over almost anything!.
Our photographer took a special trip in a bucket to get this shot.
Looking north from over the pedestrian bridge. The passenger's
view will be terrific here, the top edge of beam is 59' 8"
above the sidewalk.
Same place, this time looking south along Paradise Road. Convention
Center Station will be to the left. In the distance you can see
work down the center of Paradise Road. Note the smooth look of
these beams, looks like Granite Construction is doing these right!
If you are a monorailist, this image speaks for itself. WOWEE!
