The original Tacoma Narrows Bridge was built on a shoestring budget, relatively speaking, something like $6.4 million. I hate to use the term skimping, but you had to figure they cut corners here and there. Compare that to the Varrazano Bridge (even adjusted for inflation), which carried a price tag of $324 million in 1964 dollars. |
