Notes
  • Significance: The Sacramento River Bridge, also known as the Tower Bridge, and as the M Street Bridge, when built, was determined eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places in 1980 and listed in the Register in 1982. The bridge represents a rare use of Streamlined Moderne architectural styling in a lift bridge, making it an outstanding expression of the social and architectural climate of the period. It was also a major link in transcontinental highway U.S. 40, and has long served as the main formal gateway to California's capital city.
