"Over the last 40 years, population growth meant additional traffic along I-75 in Lee County—one of Florida’s main north-south thoroughfares. To address the traffic increase, the Florida Department of Transportation is widening 33 miles of I-75 from four to eight lanes. The goal? Enhance mobility for people, commerce, and industry."

Early analysis determined that there was some reserve capacity for additional weight on the existing piers and foundations, indicating that pier cap extensions were a feasible approach for supporting a widened bridge deck. A more conventional pier widening scheme would require construction from the foundation level up.

"A proposed redevelopment project in Portland would reshape that city’s skyline, with plans that include, among other things, towering skyscrapers connected by a glass-enclosed botanical bridge that would be 680 feet in the air and span a distance of 236 feet.
Of the two tallest central towers, one would exceed 970 vertical feet..."

Portland hasn't been allowed to grow as tall as Seattle, SF & LA.
