Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel
Angleščina
27 b
At its opening in 1964, the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel was named one of the "e;Five Wonders of the Modern World"e; by Reader's Digest magazine.It was the culmination of a concerted, decade-long push by a group of men, led by Lucius J. Kellam Jr., an Eastern Shore native and businessman who dreamed of opening up the remote Eastern Shore to the bustling Virginia mainland. This $200-million, 17.6-mile-long series of bridges, tunnels, islands, and trestle in the middle of the Chesapeake Bay - long dismissed as impractical and even impossible - won the attention of the world at its opening. It also brought an abrupt end to the ferry service that was long a cornerstone of the New York-to-Florida "e;Ocean Highway,"e; shuttling millions of cars between the Eastern Shore and Hampton Roads.
