Cascade Bridge, Road bridge in Burlington, United States.
The Cascade Bridge spans 464 feet across Cascade Ravine with four sections of 160 feet each, featuring Baltimore deck truss construction and Pratt deck trusses.
The Burlington City Council approved the bridge construction in 1896, with Cedar Rapids firm Boynton & Warriner designing it and Milwaukee Bridge and Iron Works building it.
The National Register of Historic Places added this bridge to its listings in 1998, recognizing its engineering methods from the late 19th century.
The structure remains closed to vehicles, pedestrians, and bicycles since 2008, with concrete support from stone abutments and a steel cylinder pier.
The bridge contains concrete pedestals and maintains its original structure despite deck replacement and concrete applications to stone abutments over time.
