Notes
  • Significance: According to a New York State Department of Transportation bridge inventory, this bridge is one of the earlier reinforced concrete arch bridges in New York, as well as an example of a bridge using the "Kahn" system of reinforcement. The bridge was designed with some assistance from a civil engineer specializing in reinforced concrete construction, but was constructed according to plans prepared by local engineers not associated with a major consulting engineering firm specializing in the field of reinforced concrete arch design. The two span bridge built in 1910 is similar in configuration to the bridge first proposed in 1902. The primary reason for building the bridge of concrete was the lower cost of reinforced concrete in comparison to an alternative steel truss design.
