Are historical crossings relevant to this article? There was a crossing located between the Crescent City Connection and Canal Street Ferry in New Orleans. It was the Mississippi Aerial River Transit which operated during the 1984 World's Fair. It was supposed to be a permanent operating structure (ala Seattle Center Monorail) after the World's Fair ended but it only operated for a few months before permanently shutting down. The terminals, towers and cables were finally removed in 1994. If it had remained and the fare per crossing was adjusted to be comparable to the Canal Street Ferry, then it would probably would still be in operation today.

Would anyone oppose adding clearances (air drafts) to the table? Rkedge (talk) 20:05, 13 September 2021 (UTC)Reply
