Description

Built in 1912 this historic town lattice truss crosses the Neversink River. A parking lot provides two or three spaces off the road. This bridge has a short timber approach span. The main span is 119 feet. Our visit was on 4/11/98. There is a gauging station just downstream of the bridge.

Photography

Easy to photograph portal since the bridge has no traffic. Easy to get nice photo of side view of bridge from multiple angles.

Parking

A small parking area is available near the bridge.
