    Gordie Howe International Bridge is a six lane bridge with a width that accommodates future expansion to eight lanes, while still including a pedestrian trail. It will be the longest cable-stayed bridge in North America and will also set the world record for longest composite steel and concrete cable-stayed bridge deck in the world.

    Can someone explain the cable stay process as it relates to anchoring. Where are the cables first anchored and to what? How are they anchored in the tower? I will assume they first are anchored on the bridge deck, then fed up to the tower, through the other side of the tower, down to the other side of the bridge deck (nearest the beginning of the bridge deck) and anchored there? Is that correct. Exactly how are the cable anchored?

      @@michaelanthonyvideos Exactly. It was David Bradley, president of the Ontario Trucking Association, who first proposed naming the bridge after a Canadian hockey player who played for the Detroit Red Wings for 25 seasons and helped the team win many Stanley Cups. The bridge's new name was a no-brainer for both countries. Gordie Howe himself thought it sounded pretty good to him.

    Since 1902, Zug Island, as you pointed out @ 2:15, has been melting iron ore. It has been an environmental waste of Gods' land for all that time. To people who give a damn, it has become an embarrassment to the state of Michigan, and for that matter, the entire country. What a view for visitors coming over from Canada. When you do come over to the U.S. to visit, just close your left eye.
