This large deck truss bridge crosses the Nemadji River on the south side of Superior.
Built in 1900, the bridge has seen a number of modifications. The main truss span features a 6-panel, riveted Warren Through Truss. This span was built in 1899 and originally approached by trestle spans. A third truss line was added to this span at some point.
The approaches were rebuilt in 1907 and 1913 with a number of steel deck girder spans on either side. However, some of these spans were replaced in 2009. The entire west approach was replaced by new modular concrete spans. The bridge is set onto concrete and stone substructures, as well as steel piles.
It is unknown why the west approach was replaced. The bridge is difficult to access, and the author accessed it via the frozen river.
Overall, the bridge remains in fair condition. It appears that some damage may have occurred to the structure during a flooding event.
The author has ranked this bridge as being moderately significant, due to the truss design.
