English: The Cooper Street Bridge is a concrete deck arch bridge over the Western Route (MBTA Haverhill Line) in the Greenwood neighborhood of Wakefield, Massachusetts. It was built in 1905 by contractor Joseph Ross; the designer is unknown. It is an unusual asymmetric arch bridge due to the unequal sides of the railway cut it spans - the arch has different heights and thicknesses on each side, and the deck is sloped. It was photographed by the Historic American Engineering Survey in 1995, just before a renovation project. At that time, it was" one of only two concrete-arch bridges of its age spanning more than 50' that are known to survive in Massachusetts."
