Historic Structure Report, Arlington Memorial Bridge, Washington, DC
The study traces the historical course of events leading up to the building of a memorial bridge connecting the City of Washington with the government cemetery at Arlington, Virginia, and places the story of the Arlington Memorial Bridge within the broader context of local and national historical developments that determined the evolution of the form of the bridge, the several proposals for the location, and the many delays in actual construction. The overview is followed by sections dealing in greater detail with the landscape elements of the bridge composition, and with the engineering design, techniques, and construction of the bridge as actually built.
