Christo and his late wife, Jeanne-Claude, had won state and federal permits to build a project called "Over the River," which would have involved the suspension of nearly six miles of giant fabric panels from anchors and cables over parts of a 42-mile stretch of the Arkansas River next to U.S. Highway 50. On Wednesday, Jan. 25, 2017, Christo announced that he has abandoned plans to complete the project. (AP Photo/Brennan Linsley, file)
