Notes
  • Significance: An early and artful example of reinforced concrete, the viaduct was shaped by community and civic demands, the flexibility of poured construction, and the talented design of James H. Fuertes. This bridge links not two, but three locations: the industry of Paxton Creek valley, residences on Allison's Hill, and Harrisburg's downtown. When completed, it was among the world's longest and most complex reinforced concrete bridges.
