    Eleven 61-foot-long, ¼-inch-diameter stainless-steel cables support the slats. Supplied by Landmann Wire Rope Products, the cables hang in shallow catenary arches across the center of the 59-foot-long span. “We didn’t want the cables so taut that they didn’t have a little gracefulness,” Speck says.
