The Lower Decks

Midday closure of the upper deck of the Verrazano Narrows Bridge. Traffic slows to a crawl. A helicopter hovers. I associate it with the U.N. General Assembly and Obama being in town, anti-terrorism and all that. Why didn't it occur to me that there was a jumper on the deck above? Successfully talked down from the ledge. (Another one hadn't been earlier in the week, I find out subsequently.)

While waiting to merge into the two lanes moving across the span, I snapped this shot. The blue outline reminded me of Florida. Was it meant to call attention to the fraying concrete or a more significant problem below?
