May 23 2004, 6:30 am - placing the 3rd cable on the west pylon
A view from the Pearman - continued tower construction and
building the 3rd set of stay cables
Platform and west pylon: Note the 3rd anchor and cable placement
Platform and east pylon: Note the 3rd anchor and platform extension
Elevator and exit ports on the west pylon: Any idea about what the
ports at the bottom of the photo are all about? Perhaps the cables (tendons)
are to counteract outward forces transmitted down the concrete "V"?
