Chronology

2005

A single-tower cable-stayed bridge design by Christian Menn is chosen by a US/Canadian jury in an international competition.

2008

Menn's original design is abandoned after environmental concerns over the threat of migratory birds colliding with the bridge cables.

December 2009

Five revised designs developed by Menn and Figg Engineering in cooperation with avian experts Terry Yonkers and Michael Morgante are presented.
