Cypress Street Viaduct

 * Strong keep. This article describes an extremely well-known section of freeway in Oakland which was the location of by far the majority of fatalities and serious injuries during the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake. Binksternet (talk) 21:24, 5 February 2009 (UTC)
 * You're joking. No, really. Did you read the article? --NE2 22:16, 5 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Speedy Keep - What is disturbing is the nom is an established experienced user and also an administrator. Perhaps the account was hacked as this appears a form of WP:DISRUPT.  You can write an entire book, no less a Wikipedia article, on this topic. --Oakshade (talk) 00:07, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Books have been written, admittedly mostly government reports and the like. --NE2 00:27, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
 * This one could probably be kept - I nominated it along with a whole bunch of nonnotable bridges, and I didn't realize the historical significance of this. I plan to withdraw this. --Rschen7754 (T C) 01:02, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
