The Bridges of Winneshiek County
Wednesday, January 10, 2007
Jason Smith has issued a call to action
for preserving the bridges in Winneshiek County, Iowa, several of which are scheduled for replacement
in the coming years. Read the article.
Winneshiek features a collection of rare bowstring truss bridges dating back to the
1870's, plus a large number of through and pony trusses.
In addition, Jason is seeking information on the Continental Bridge Co. of Chicago, the builder of the Chimney Rock Bridge (1906). If you can help, contact him at JDSmith77 [at] gmx [dot] net.
