The following is an computer-generated summary of the video transcript.

Yeah, that image has been in my head for years and years and traveling. I see that on the way home and I really feel like I've, I've made it, I feel like it's part of my neighborhood and part of me, it's certainly an indicator that I'm home. When I first heard about the cook point bridge, I heard about it through a demolition plan. These providence and providence, safety had been concerned that too many people have been accessing the bridge. We take things out of papers out of public uh, events and we try to bring them into the classroom. So I brought it to a studio here at johnson and Wales and I brought the planning department in them that studio and we imagined some ideas. We had a lot of dead space and then this competition was released. I thought it was a fantastic opportunity to take some of these ideas and moving forward, the award of the cash for the project was nice, but that wasn't nearly as good as the, you know, the feeling that I've really wanted to contribute to this. I love that idea that I can provide a better place for people to be and this would just be that to the and scale bike path that runs through its interactive light, experiences, music, possibilities, food with their friends and little gazebos. I see the future of this project with the possibility that it might happen in upcoming years. I hope my vision for the Cook Point Bridge well, excite people into wanting to fast track this process and get the part that they deserve. I'm sure that some people have no idea that the parts could be something like this just spurs people's imaginations and I think it will be a jewel.
