Brady Street Bridge, Steel bowstring arch bridge in Pittsburgh, United States
The Brady Street Bridge connected Brady Street on the Pittsburgh side with South 22nd Street across the Monongahela River through its tied arch main span.
Built in 1896 by the Schultz Bridge and Iron Company, the structure served as a vital transportation link until its closure in 1976 and demolition in 1978.
The bridge represented a central gathering point between the industrial neighborhoods of Soho and Birmingham, facilitating community connections across the Monongahela River.
The total length reached 2,250 feet with a main span of 520 feet, accommodating two traffic lanes through its suspended road deck construction.
Parts of the bridge, including its railings, found new life at Station Square station through preservation efforts by the Pittsburgh History and Landmarks Foundation.
