Last week, San Francisco's famous landmark, the Golden Gate Bridge celebrated its 72nd birthday. Besides being beautiful, the iconic bridge that opened to pedestrians only, on May 27th,1937 (drivers had to wait an extra day), was also an engineering marvel as the longest suspension bridge ever built.
