This bridge is one of a number of remaining concrete deck arch bridges in South Bend. This one is significant for documented association with federal aid as a part of Depression-era programs. Plaques remain on the bridge, listing the road as Angela Avenue and displaying the Public Works Administration. These plaques are a standard design that came from the federal level, and were used on many Depression-era bridges, including Elkhart's Bridge Street Bridge, which was also built by the same contactor. The Indian Trail Bridge in St. Clair County, Michigan also used these plaques.
