The One About New Deal Projects

from Mosquito Coast by Curtain Rod Character

/

lyrics

Hey what's the deal with this new deal?
Here are a few to get started with

Hot Dam
The Hoover Dam had an average temperature
Of about 120 degrees
That's in Fahrenheit
In the summer of '31

A Shining exterior
The Timberline Lodge in Oregon
Served as the Overlook Hotel
For the establishing shot in the famous film
6,000 feet above sea level
Go south about 800 miles and you can also observe
The Griffith Observatory

Tunnels of Love
The Blue Ridge Parkway has 26 tunnels in hundreds of miles
Through Virginia and North Carolina
The Lincoln Tunnel between New York and New Jersey
Is decidedly not a tunnel of love

This bridge gets me to and fro each day
The twenty-ninth street bridge in Baltimore crosses the Jones Falls valley. Granted, it's made out of granite; we also have some great Post Office murals nearby too


La Guardia Airport was built on the site of the Gala Amusement Park
Don't forget about all those ski jumps and culverts and sewage treatment plants too
