Buskirk Bridge, Historic covered bridge in Washington County, New York, US.
The Buskirk Bridge spans 165 feet across the Hoosic River, featuring wooden construction and incorporating the Howe truss design for structural support.
Built in 1857 by Peter Osterhauth, Charles Newman, and James Roberts, the bridge received National Register of Historic Places designation in March 1978.
