Tukuk-OS🌉 Le Grand Bridge (1896)
United States · Americas · 42.03°N, 92.77°W
The Le Grand Bridge was a bridge north of Le Grand, Iowa, United States. It spanned the Iowa River for 242 feet (74 m), carrying traffic on a gravel road named Abbot Avenue. Since Abbott Avenue is the border between Marshall and Tama counties, the bridge is in two counties lengthwise. Many bridges span from one county to another, but few are lengthwise split. It necessitated a joint session of the two counties' Boards of Supervisors on June 29, 1896, to approve the project. The pinned Pratt through truss bridge was built in 1896 by the Marshalltown Bridge and Iron Works for $3,548. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1998. The bridge collapsed in the Iowa flood of 2008.
