The cable used on the bridge is composed of 290 strands and is 186,000
miles long. The bridge is equipped with a feature that no other bridge has.
That feature is mass dampers that include pendulums that help stabilize

married Prince Rainier of Monaco that her father's domain (John B. Kelly,
Sr., was president of the Fairmount Park Commission) was larger than her
husband's. Indeed, the Principality of Monaco covers only .6 square miles,
