Starrucca Viaduct, Railway bridge in Lanesboro, United States.
The Starrucca Viaduct extends 1,040 feet across Starrucca Creek, featuring 17 stone arches crafted from local bluestone and reaching a height of 100 feet.
Built between 1847 and 1848 by the New York and Erie Railroad, this structure marked one of the first applications of concrete in American bridge construction.
The viaduct stands as a testament to nineteenth-century engineering, earning recognition on the National Register of Historic Places and as a National Civil Engineering Landmark.
