Eagle Point Bridge, Road bridge in Dubuque, United States.
The Eagle Point Bridge connected urban Dubuque, Iowa with rural Grant County, Wisconsin through a narrow two-lane automobile passage over the Mississippi River.
Organized in 1894 by Joseph A. Rhomberg with initial capitalization of $100,000, the bridge opened in 1902 and operated until its demolition in 1983.
The bridge opening celebration in May 1902 gathered five thousand residents who crossed into Wisconsin for festivities, marking its significance for local communities.
Located 900 feet south of Lock and Dam No. 11 at the northern edge of Rhomberg Avenue, the bridge collected a ten-cent toll on the Iowa side.
Despite being structurally sound after the construction of the new Dubuque-Wisconsin Bridge, federal regulations required its demolition in 1982.
