Lehigh Valley Railroad Bridge, Railway bridge across Delaware River between Easton, Pennsylvania and Phillipsburg, New Jersey
The steel truss bridge spans over the Delaware River with a robust construction that demonstrates industrial engineering methods from the early 1900s.
Built by the American Bridge Company in 1901 on piers from 1866, this structure facilitated coal transportation from Pennsylvania mines to eastern markets.
The bridge represents an important period of American industrial growth, connecting two states and supporting regional economic development through rail transport.
Located at coordinates 40°41′15″N and 75°12′08″W, the structure maintains its position as a reference point for regional transportation infrastructure studies.
The bridge construction incorporated existing stone piers from an earlier structure, demonstrating early twentieth-century adaptive engineering practices.
