The longest arch bridge in the world will be in Dubai
Fxfowle, the NY architecture firm that built the NY Times Building and the Conde Nast Building, is now working on what will be the longest arch bridge in the world in Dubai. When &mdash and if &mdash completed in 2012, it will be a mile long, 670 feet tall, and have 12 lanes of traffic with train tracks dividing them in the middle. [via io9]
