The white bridge.

I was coming back from my evening running and I saw the huge white brigde, so I went to know it. It's modern and beautiful. After I searched its history. Its name is Moody Pedestrian Bridge. The overall length of the bridge is approximately 300 feet (91 m), with the highest central towers reaching 65 feet (20 m). It connects the second floor of the Belo Center for New Media to the fourth floor of Jones Communication Center buildings A and B over West Dean Keeton Street. It cost $ 50 million. The UT received donations of charitable foundations to build it. The Moody Pedestrian Bridge was officially opened to foot traffic on March 22nd in 2016.

UT at night

Last Wednesday, on July 31st, at 9:30 p.m. my friends and I went to Math, Physics and Astrology Building, this is the highest bulding at the University of Texas at Austin (t he building was completed in 1972) . It has seventeen floors. On this bulding there is a big telescope, we went there to observe the stars, but we can just see two stars. On the other hand, the view  from UT  was wonderful. We can't see many stars but we saw Ut shine.

 On Sunday evening, during my walking I found a very huge building, it really impressed me with its size. I think it is the biggest bulding of the UT. It is The Institute of Latin American Studies and Collection, it is near the LBJ Library and Museum buiding, that is huge too. There is a big monument in front of The Institute of Latin American Studies and Collection building, it is The San Lorenzo Monument, a replica of an Olmec colossal head of ancient Mesoamerica. https://liberalarts.utexas.edu/llilas/news/olmec-head-sculpture-donated-to-llilas
