Martín Peña Bridge, Road bridge and National Register of Historic Places site in Santurce, Puerto Rico.

The Art Deco bridge spans the Martín Peña Channel, connecting multiple neighborhoods through Juan Ponce de León Avenue and Carretera Central roadways.

Engineer Cecilio Delgado designed this structure in 1939, replacing previous versions including a stone causeway from the 1500s and a brick bridge from 1784.

The bridge received designation in the National Register of Historic Places in August 2008 under reference number 08000856.
