I changed the canvas around the CT following Bezo's suggestion he gave me at the USS Virginia thread.

Where are the bridgewings extensions? They should be arched, with the outermost, about 3/4 section detachable, and on level with the upper CT level. You did put that PriNav station atop the CT, so that's good.
I took a closer look at some photos of the Connecticut and her sisters the Minnesota and Louisiana, to check the actual tarp configuration around the cage mast base, and in all instances it does clearly show that the platform on which the cagemast was erected (since clearly the charthouse would be too narrow!) is wider than the base, and thus the tarpaulins are wrapping around it (Although rather narrowly; I think much of the confusion here is emanating from pics showing the class with uncovered bridge levels!). In other words, though the cage mast does extend all the way down to the 01-deck level, it is interrupted by a platform deck level with the upper CT level.
Your latest picture, alas, does not confirm in that aspect to the photographic evidence. But, we're getting there, and that's what matters!
