BTW...I was taken across that bridge a day after being born - June 1954 on Mare Island.

Digital photos of red/orange are notoriously wonky, then on top of that add that many/most folks increase saturation of digital photos to make them pop and what you see may not be the same as the real view. Also, there's a huge variation in what monitors display.
Red colors fade the worst/fastest, so I'm sure the color changes over time.
The color probably also looks different depending upon the light conditions and weather.
