Evergreen Point Floating Bridge (2016)

 * ... that the world's longest floating bridge opened in 2016 to replace the previous title-holder, the Evergreen Point Floating Bridge on Lake Washington?


 * ALT1: ... that the world's longest floating bridge was built parallel to the previous title-holder, both in the U.S. state of Washington?
 * ALT2: ... that the new Evergreen Point Floating Bridge is the fourth floating bridge to connect Seattle with its Eastside suburbs, and the world's longest?


 * Comment: Open to suggestions. Just wanted to get this article in the queue.

 * Symbol question.svg Article looks great - you two have done a fantastic job of it. No QPQ needed. I would suggest a different hook: ALT3: ... that the world's longest floating bridge opened next to the previous title-holder in 2016? Pi.1415926535 (talk) 19:15, 27 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Just in case we need QPQ, I reviewed Template:Did you know nominations/Three chorale fantasias, Op. 52 - Brianhe (talk) 22:22, 27 April 2016 (UTC)


 * Symbol redirect vote 4.svg Full review needed. North America1000 11:23, 29 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg This impressive article is new enough and long enough. Approving ALT2, but not the other hooks because I could not find mention in the article of the previous bridge being the title holder. The article is neutral and I detected no copyright issues.

 * I've added a referenced mention of the old bridge being the previous record-holder, though I prefer ALT2 as well.  Sounder Bruce  22:08, 11 May 2016 (UTC)
 * The hook ref for ALT3 appears in footnote 37. It is verified and cited inline. Yoninah (talk) 22:15, 11 May 2016 (UTC)
