The structure includes an array of floatable, submersible caissons and a floatable box girder capable of supporting a modular superstructure. The box girder is floated to a position on the ocean surface above the submerged array of caissons. The array of caissons is then raised to engage and connect with the box girder. The caissons may also be secured to the ocean bottom.
