Notes
  • Significance: The State Road 569 bridge, built by the Pacolet Manufacturing Company, was an integral part of a designed landscape known as "Victor Park" created by Earle Sumner Draper. Draper is considered to be one of the first professionally trained landscape architects working in the South prior to World War I and the bridge possesses historical significance for its use by Draper as a component within the Victor Park design. Draper designed the park as part of a mill extension and beautification program for Pacolet Manufacturing Company between 1920 and 1929. His firm, one of the largest in the nation in the 1920s and 1930s, was responsible for numerous landscape designs for mill towns across the Southeast as well as private estates and government towns.
