| South Bend Canadian National Railroad Bridge | Railroad (Canadian National) Over St. Joseph River and Others | South Bend: St. Joseph County, Indiana | Metal Deck Girder, Stationary | 1938 By: Unknown |
This bridge is composed of two parts, one that passes over St. Joseph River and the other which passes over Northside Boulevard. Of the two, the Northside Boulevard portion is the most interesting. It features attractive concrete railings, which complement a concrete veneer that covers the steel girders. The piers have an attractive design as well. The main spans over the river in contrast are more so just simple deck plate girders, although their are original pole railings present there.
Information and Findings From DHPA Historic Bridge SurveyStatement of Significance The design of these deck girders is rather conventional. The whole retains its original structural integrity and outer-span decoration. Architectural Description Two six-span plate girders sit side-by-side upon concrete piers, abutments, and wingwalls. The girders of the outer spans on each end of the structure are encased in concrete and decorated. The girders' flange ends are rounded. Attached towards the girder tops, I floor beams and the flanges support the railroad ties. Bridge Considered Historic By Survey: Not Rated |
