Notes
  • Significance: Erected in 1906, the single-span, 130-foot Pawtuxet River Railroad Bridge carries both main line tracks of the Amtrak Northeast Corridor over the Pawtuxet River and Wellington Avenue. This riveted, double-intersection Warren through-truss is a massive example of early-twentieth-century bridge engineering and is one of only four fixed, through-truss railroad bridges remaining in Rhode Island.
  • Survey number: HAER RI-44
  • Building/structure dates: 1906 Initial Construction
