Flagler was so fricking rich he built the damned thing, in part, due to personal motivation

The hurricane that took it out was a fricking beast.

That's correct. That's the Long Key viaduct which was originally a railroad bridge and later a road. My grandfather ran a maintenance crew for the railroad. He made it out before the hurricane hit, thankfully. He had a lot of stories about living in the Keys in those days. Good fishing.
