Systems We’re Following
This is an index of some of the cable systems we are currently following. These systems are all in the planning, proposed, or construction phases. Generally, we are interested in gathering information about each systems — such as technical stats, design processes, overall costs, and the general local and global responses to each. This index is different than the Conceptual CPT Designs page, which is meant to profile concepts that are in a much more theoretical phase, although we admit that there could be some overlap between the two. If you would like to share any updates on these systems, send us an email at gondola(at)creativeurbanprojects(dot)com
