There is no reason this structure should not be NR listed, as the portals carvings are absolutely magnificent, and it is a gorgeous piece of Art Déco architecture... If this was in a place like Miamis Art Déco District it would be NR listed in a heartbeat simply due to it's architecture style.
This bridge really accompanies the nearby memorial as well. Shame that idiot teens have to tag the underside of this bridge, that is basically like tagging the Empire State Building. This bridge should be protected from morons like that.
Can't those spray paint weilding morons find better things to do than deface beautifully kept reminders of America's great bridgebuilding past. This open spandrel arch looks rehabilitated but the stupid graffiti spoils it all.
Robert, that is a beautiful bridge and a stunning photograph! If it weren't for the debris, it could be a post card view. Kudos on a great shot!
Known locally as the 'Memorial Bridge', it's construction is part of the design for the George Rogers National Memorial located at it's southeast corner (in Vincennes, Indiana).
