Lindbergh Boulevard Bridge
Posted October 29, 2010, by Mark Dellbringge

When the "The New I-64" website was launched, MoDOT showcased the early life of this bridge in a little more detail, to wit: the Charles Lindbergh commemorative sculpture in the median, at both ends of the bridge (circa 1945). Do we have any photos of that sculpture that can be added to the gallery? Thank you, Mark Dellbringge
