EDITORS COMMENTS
The Huey P. Long Bridge, a marvel of engineering and a symbol of progress, spans the mighty Mississippi River in New Orleans, Louisiana. Opened in December 1935, this iconic structure marked a significant milestone in the history of transportation in the United States. Named after the charismatic and controversial Louisiana Governor, Huey P. Long, the bridge was built to connect the city of New Orleans with the West Bank of the river, providing much-needed relief to the congested streets of the city. The bridge was a joint effort between the Louisiana State Highway Department and the Louisiana Railroad Commission, and it was the longest bridge in the world at the time of its completion, measuring 3,860 feet in length. The bridge's distinctive Art Deco design, with its elegant towers and graceful arches, is a testament to the ingenuity and vision of its builders. The bridge's construction was a massive undertaking, requiring the use of over 100,000 tons of steel and 350,000 cubic yards of concrete. The bridge's towers were built using a unique cantilever method, which involved building the towers from both ends and meeting in the middle. This photograph captures the bridge in its early years, with the towers still gleaming fresh and the approach roads relatively uncluttered. The Mississippi River, a constant presence in the background, adds to the bridge's majesty, reflecting the bridge's towers and arches in its calm waters. The Huey P. Long Bridge remains an enduring symbol of the ingenuity, resilience, and determination of the American people, and it continues to serve as a vital link between the East and West Banks of the Mississippi River in New Orleans.
