Arch Bridge from the Boonton Ironworks
Arch Bridge from the Boonton Ironworks, Stone arch bridge in Grace Lord Park, United States.
The stone arch bridge spans 47 feet across the Rockaway River with a width of 9 feet, constructed entirely from fieldstone materials.
Local mason John Carson Sr built this bridge in 1866 to support a water pipe system providing fire protection for the Boonton Ironworks operations.
The bridge stands as a representation of 19th-century industrial engineering within the Boonton Ironworks Historic District of Morris County.
The structure functions as a pedestrian crossing point in Grace Lord Park, connecting visitors to both sides of the Rockaway River.
The bridge received restoration funding from the New Jersey Historic Trust in 2020 to maintain its original structural integrity.
