This is such an excellent portrayal of what is defined as the "Urban Shadow".
According to Crane Slater Miller in his dissertation on Agriculture in an Urbanizing Environment, he refers to the "Urban Shadow" as "Extensive areas of vacant land...often result[ing] from land speculators buying and holding land in anticipation of future capital gains".
This bridge that leads to an open expanse of emptyness can be representative of modern technology establishing a foothold in vacant territory in anticipation of future developments not yet realized.
