New Hampshire Notable Bridge

Piermont Steel Bridge

Initially built as a wooden bridge, it was destroyed 3 times. It cost a penny to walk across the bridge and 3 pennies for a car. The current Piedmont bridge was built in 1927 along the Connecticut River after the previous wooden bridge was destroyed in the flood. The eastern abutment, built in 1908 in a relatively early use of structural concrete, needed to be strengthened to accommodate the increased weight of the new steel bridge.
