Summary

[edit]
Description The Ak-Sar-Ben Bridge was a truss bridge that was the first road bridge to cross the Missouri River connecting Omaha, Nebraska and Council Bluffs, Iowa. It was replaced in 1966 by the Interstate 480 girder bridge. Originally called the Douglas Street Bridge, the bridge was built by the Omaha and Council Bluffs Street Railway Company in 1888 and was designed to handle streetcars. It was a toll bridge. (This image was slightly altered from source. An attempt was made to remove the drawn decorative overlay on the top part of this photo in order to reduce visual confusion when used isolated from other parts of original source.)
