Title
Middle Creek Bridge
Description
The Middle Creek Bridge, a 4-panel Pratt pony truss, is one of only four bridges remaining built by Seevers Manufacturing Company, based in Oskaloosa, Iowa. The use of steel pipe for the upper chord was a standard design for the company, which also manufactured steam pipes. This bridge is an excellent example of the company's work, an unusual structural type designed and fabricated by a small-scale Iowa company. This photo was taken for the Heritage Documentation Programs, a division of the National Parks Services. The Heritage Documentation Programs is responsible for administering the Historic American Buildings Survey, Historic American Engineering Record, and Historic American Landscapes Survey. All information from the Heritage Documentation Programs is archived in the Library of Congress.
