Alsina Bridge, Steel bridge in Nueva Pompeya, Argentina.
The Valentin Alsina Bridge spans across the Riachuelo River with a steel structure featuring six traffic lanes and neo-colonial architectural elements at both ends.
The current bridge, completed in 1938, replaced several previous structures dating back to 1855, when the first wooden crossing was built at this location.
The bridge houses the Bandoneon Center, a municipal facility dedicated to teaching traditional tango music instruments and circus performance arts.
The 173-meter-long bridge connects Nueva Pompeya in Buenos Aires with Valentin Alsina in Lanus through a system of rolling lift mechanisms for water traffic.
Diego Maradona mentioned in interviews that crossing this bridge to Pompeya reminded him of crossing Manhattan Bridge during his childhood.
