... the full cost of the project would be tax deductible, thus virtually forcing the government to buy the building;
... The bridges constructed to access the building were made from oak trees originally planted in the 19th century for use in replacing the national fleet that was lost with the bombardment of Copenhagen in September 1807.
... The acoustics were designed by Arup Acoustics.
In the days when it was built, 4 mph was about top speed for a traction engine, although if you were only allowed 4 wheels then your engine couldn't pull any load over the bridge! You would have to get some horses for the load.4 mph, good luck getting anything on 4 wheels going that slow these days.
