Christo and Jeanne-Claude's vision for Over The River was conceived in 1992 and included 9.5 kilometers (5.9 miles) of silvery, luminous fabric panels to be suspended clear of and high above the water in eight distinct areas along a 67.6-kilometer (42-mile) stretch of the Arkansas River between Cañon City and Salida in south-central Colorado. The planning process however, led to many frustrating years of dealing with federal bureaucracies for approval and environmental protests. Jeanne-Claude also passed away during this time in 2009. After 20 years and going through five years of legal arguments, Christo decided to abandon the project. Over the River still remains one of the most talked about unrealized projects of Christo and Jeanne-Claude today.
