How about a newer pic

[edit]

How about putting a more recent pic of the bridge, omiting the Green Bridge. BiggKwell 22:51, 16 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Took a while, but I finally got one. howcheng {chat} 22:58, 28 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Spurious claims?

[edit]

I see the Cable Bridge described as the first major cable-stayed bridge to be built in the US. I'm not sure how this title wouldn't go to the Brooklyn bridge, built some 90 years earlier. While the Brooklyn Bridge is a cable-tied suspension bridge, it's hard to find an example of a cable-tied bridge that isn't a blend of bridge technologies, the Ed Hendler Bridge included. It's also described as the second-longest in the world when opened, but there's three cable-stayed bridges that were longer at the time, that aren't even ambiguously "other" types of cable-tie bridge. 71.94.164.106 (talk) 19:50, 3 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
