Tokyo Gate Bridge

It had been a while since I last uploaded photographs over at the Japan Reference gallery. So, I uploaded a bunch tonight and found out something about the photo above.

I had taken the photo of Odaiba, the Rainbow Bridge and part of Tokyo Bay from the Tokyo City View at Mori Tower in Roppongi Hills in February.

One of Japan Reference's administrators posted this comment about the photo:

And the new Tokyo Gate Bridge in the background. Nice shot!

I did some checking and found that the Tokyo Gate Bridge opened in February 2012 and spans Tokyo Bay, connecting Wakasu in Kōtō-ku with Jōnanjima.

One learns something new everyday!
