Unused Props

Vice Point Unfinished Bridge

Unused broken bridge for Vice Point, as suggested by the "nbeachnbeachnbeach.ipl, nbeachbt.ipl, nbeachwt.ipl - Map Placement Files for Vice Point (Inspired by North Beach, Miami)." prefix in its file name. The bridge's original placement in Vice Point is unknown, although it clearly served as a ramp.
