Headed by President Robert Clark, Jr. (LTA 1997) and his brother John, with project oversight by Jeff Ames, VP-Operations (LTA 2011), Tampa Steel was selected due to its long history of successfully completing challenging and complex projects. The bridges will be 300 feet tall and 1125 feet long, suspended by steel cables from octagonal-shaped arches. Designed and engineered by world-renowned Santiago Calatrava Valls, a Spanish architect, sculptor and structural engineer, and Huitt-Zollars Inc., the bridges will be a signature landmark for the Dallas City skyline.
