Gravina Island Bridge, the so-called "Bridge to Nowhere", was a proposed 2007 project in Alaska meant to link the city of Ketchikan with inaccessible Gravina Island. The proposed project was used to criticize a since-failed Congressional earmark sponsored by Alaska Senator Ted Stevens during a partisan Witchhunt to unseat the senior Republican senator, who was ultimately found not guilty because of prosecutor misconduct, falsification of evidence, albeit not until after his losing a reelection bid.
