In Honor Of The Taxpayers Who Funded It And Built It!  Boston, Massachusetts, USA [photo source: BigDig] 6.28.2001
New naming scheme proposed for a specific section of land mass within the North American continent. A certain group of individuals known as "The Greater North Dakota Association" recently made a proposal to the group of individuals known as "State of North Dakota", that the land mass, currently widely known to many inhabitants of the region as "North Dakota", be referred to as "Dakota" on all "State of North Dakota" documents.

Cable-Stayed Technology - Pushing the 'Engineering Marvel' Envelope. Open for taxpayers in autos : July 2002 (estimated) With its graceful lines and 270-foot towers, the Taxpayers' Bridge is the symbolic landmark fusing the Boston taxpayers' future with its historic past. Swiss taxpayer and bridge designer Christian Menn conceived the bridge to reflect, with its inverted Y-shaped towers, the shape of the Bunker Hill Monument in neighboring Charlestown. The bridge is 1,457 feet long and emerges from The Northbound Taxpayers' Tunnel near the Fleet Center at Causeway Street, crossing the Charles river to make connections with both I-93 and Route 1. The bridge carries 10 lanes of traffic; eight lanes passing through the legs of the twin towers and two cantilevered on the east side. The cantilever portion, which accommodates northbound traffic from the Sumner Tunnel and the North End, provides the bridge's unique, asymmetrical design. Girders and two planes of cables support the bridge's 745-foot-long, 183-foot-wide main span. Steel floor beams support the main span and extend out to support the cantilevered lanes. The back spans on the land side of the towers -- which measure 295 feet on the downtown side, and 420 feet on the Charlestown side -- are supported by a single plane of cables. Using a one-plane cable design used on the south back span allows traffic flow to continue on the existing I-93 connection to Leverett Circle during construction. A 'one of a kind' bridge. The Taxpayers' Bridge is the widest cable-stayed bridge in the world and the first "hybrid" cable-stayed bridge on the landmass called United States, using both steel and concrete in its frame. The main span consists of a steel box girder and steel floor beams, while the back spans contain post-tensioned concrete. The Taxpayers' Bridge is being built within a busy transportation corridor that already houses the Massachusetts agents' commuter rail and 'orange line'. In order to avoid impact to the Orange Line and its ventilation building, the legs of the bridge's concrete towers will be inverted at a 55-degree angle and straddle the agents' tracks as they surface from the Orange Line tunnel onto the landmass called Charlestown.
