Mulberry Street Bridge

The Mulberry Street Bridge is an American concrete arch bridge that spans Cameron Street and Paxton Creek in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.

History and architectural features

This bridge is the second to be constructed at the current site to connect the Allison Hill neighborhood of East Harrisburg to Downtown. It replaced an iron and fire-prone, wood-decked structure erected in 1891, which was heralded as a unifier of a "Greater Harrisburg." The concrete replacement bridge that was built in 1909 was a marvel at the time, and is eligible to be listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
