Albany Street Bridge, Road bridge over Raritan River in New Brunswick, United States
Albany Street Bridge is a road bridge that crosses the Raritan River between New Brunswick and Highland Park. The structure carries traffic between these two municipalities in the New Jersey area.
An earlier wooden toll bridge stood at this location from 1795 until it was replaced in 1887 by a new stone arch structure. This replacement improved regional transportation connections significantly.
The bridge location near Rutgers University supported the development of collegiate rowing activities, with the first intercollegiate competition held in 1870.
The bridge carries daily traffic and is easily accessible by following Route 27 between the two communities. Visitors can observe it from nearby parking areas or walk along the riverbanks for different views.
The bridge incorporated stone arch design elements during its construction, which remain visible from the riverbanks despite subsequent modifications.
