Cherry Creek Bridge, Concrete arch bridge in Franktown, Colorado.
The Cherry Creek Bridge spans 374 feet across Cherry Creek, featuring a two-rib open-spandrel arch design with a width of 29.8 feet.
Built in 1948 by J.H. & N.M. Monaghan & Associates, the bridge earned its place on the National Register of Historic Places in October 2002.
The bridge represents post-war engineering practices in Colorado, departing from the standard lighter concrete designs common during that period.
Located within Castlewood Canyon State Park on State Highway 83, the bridge carries vehicles while connecting major routes in Douglas County.
The structure's longest span reaches 232 feet, making it a notable example of concrete arch bridge construction in Colorado's transportation network.
