Notes
  • Significance: The Bladensburg Concrete Bowstring Bridge, scheduled to be replaced within the next five years, serves as an example of the innovative and popular "concrete rainbow arch" design. Patented by well-known engineer, J.B. Marsh, the design took on increasing popularity for its practical and aesthetic qualities as it became an official design of the Ohio Department of Highways during the 1920s, an era of growing state participation in bridge building. The bridge is listed as a "selected bridge" in the Ohio Department of Transportation's Ohio Historic Bridge Inventory Evaluation and Preservation Plan.
