Book excerpt: Designed first and foremost to be practical, bridges nevertheless are often breathtaking in their construction, combining function and aesthetics. The historic structures that span the Evergreen State's highways are no exception. These technological wonders are extraordinary by any measure, yet their stories have remained largely unknown. Conceived by visionary engineers and built by anonymous workmen, Washington's highway bridges are amazing triumphs of skill, and played a significant role in the state's history. Several, at the time of their completion, attracted worldwide attention and the praise of professional engineers, influencing the course of bridge construction. In their quest to compile the first comprehensive history of the state's highway bridges, the authors poured through the extensive records at the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT), collecting definitive documentation and photographs from across the state. This magnificent book, including more than 100 illustrations, represents the culmination of years of study by many individuals associated with WSDOT and the Office of Archaeology and Historic Preservation (Olympia).

Download or read book Bridges of Seattle written by Maureen R. Elenga and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2020 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seattle is situated in a region of outstanding scenic beauty, but the forested hills and numerous bodies of water that characterize the city were formidable obstacles to connecting its communities as it grew out from the historic center. Between 1896 and 1930, the city undertook massive landscape regrades, landfills, and waterway cuts to ease movement by land and water. The completion of these efforts allowed for the construction of Seattle's first permanent steel bridges beginning in 1910. Nine bridges included in this book are listed in the National Register of Historic Places. They include Washington's oldest steel arch bridge, the 1911 Twelfth Avenue South Bridge; the 1913 Ravenna Park Bridge; all four of the Lake Washington Ship Canal bascules, constructed between 1917 and 1924; and the Depression-era Aurora, Cowen Park, and Schmitz Park bridges. Bridges of Seattle explores the history of the spans that are a quintessential part of the Seattle experience.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here is an opportunity to pass through two centuries of American history as seen through the eyes of the Scottish-Presbyterian Bridges Clan. Robert Ferguson emigrated from Scotland in 1816 and settled in the small mountain town of Hancock, Maryland. He struggled to find his way as a farmer, and he co-founded the Hancock Presbyterian Church in the tradition of his forefathers from Scotland. His son Robert Bridges would find fortune in the production of cement and mining silica glass sand. At his death in 1908, he was the wealthiest man in western Maryland and the father of eleven children.Robert?s son Henry P. Bridges would become an acclaimed industrialist and conservationist. Bridges is credited with building a NYSE-traded company, Pennsylvania Glass Sand Corporation, the largest supplier of silica sand in the United States. But Bridges? real interest was the wild turkey, which he raised at the renowned Woodmont Rod and Gun Club. The club was founded in the 1870s. Among its guests were six American presidents, Amos & Andy, Babe Ruth and Gene Tunney. Bridges devoted his life to repopulating the wild turkey in North America. Though he succeeded, his story is virtually unknown. Finally, this family story spanning 200 years is told in all its extraordinary detail, from Scotland to Maryland to Tennessee.
