BRIDGES
MANY IMPORTANT STRUCTURES
IN COURSE OF CONSTRUCTION.

considerable progress was made during
the year just ended in the construction and
repair of bridges in the District. The
Pennsylvania railroad bridge across the
Potomac near the site of the oId-Long
bridge was completed and put into practi-
cal operation In August last. The new
highway bridge. a short distance farther
up the river. Is fairly advanced in con-
struction. several Of the piers and spans
being already practically completed When
this bridge Is finished the old dilapidated
Long bridge will be removed and soon be-
come only an unpleasant memory. That
Will not happen, however, for another year
yet.
The repair and widening of the Aqueduct
bridge over the Potomac at Georgetown
and the construction of the single-track
electric road thereon has been practically
completed. Operations have begun for the
construction OF the Connecticut avenue
bridge across the valley of Rock creek
This structure is to be completed by July l.
1907. The work on the Massachusetts, ave-
nue. viaduct over Rock creek was fully COM
pleted during the year. and that important
avenue now offers free access to a large
and beautiful country.
Owing to the insufficiency Of the avail
able funds, the reconstruction Of the Ana
costa bridge, near the navy yard, which
was planned for this year, has been de-
from Congress 1t is estimated that the
masonry work will cost $375000. No
action was taken during the year respect
ing the proposed memorial bridge across
the Potomac, but it is understood that a
strong effort will be made by persons in
vision for the structure at the present ses-
