At last, here are the first of my Newcastle photos. I’ll start off with bridges, because Newcastle has quite a lot of them, including some very interesting constructions.
The Tyne bridges have their own website, by the way.

Three bridges in one: Viewed from front to back, Swing Bridge, built in 1879, the High Level Bridge, built in 1849 and in the background, the Metro Bridge, built in 1980

The Sage, a music/event centre designed by Norman Foster, and the church of St Mary's of Gateshead viewed from underneath the Tyne Bridge

A sign on the railing of the Tyne Bridge with the number of the Samaritans suicide prevention hotline. The Millennium Bridge can be seen in the background

The Gateshead Millennium Bridge with the Baltic arts centre in the background and a random statue in the foreground.
Unfortunately, I did not get to see the Millennium Bridge tilting, but then I suspect that not a lot of big vessels sail up the Tyne anymore.
Somehow the bridges all blend together into a harmonious whole, although predictably I like the oldest bridge best. But that Norman Foster Building, while intriguing if it were standalone, really is an eyesore.
The Norman Foster building looks a bit as if a spaceship had suddenly landed on the banks of the Tyne. Luckily, it’s a bit set off from the neighbouring buildings.
I was getting vibes of sandworms from Dune, just in silver ^^.
