The big picture: The structural update comes two years after a fire tore through the cathedral's roof, knocking down its spire and threatening the structural integrity of the rest of the building.
Driving the news: Companies are now vying to take part in reconstruction efforts, and approximately 100 different groups will work on various rebuilding projects, per AP.
What to watch: Work to restore the organ will begin in the fall, while other reconstruction efforts are expected to begin in the winter.
