To be fair, the Empire State Building is closer to the size of the ship that knocked the bridge down. It will definitely take a minute or two to lay down a1.6 mile long bridge.
A replacement of that type of bridge with its simple construction should take less than a year.
Now this is a bridge:

Maybe we can contract out the Chinese to do it
Chinese Company built Ca Bay Bridge and it has had structural problems. Chinese steel. https://www.americanmanufacturing.org/blog/dang-the-chinese-made-bay-bridge-continues-to-fall-apart/
I was joking, of course.
I'm wondering just how much better we are, though. If at all.
