Riverside Bridge, Spanning Truckee River at Booth Street, Reno, Washoe County, NV
Summary
Significance: The Riverside Bridge is one of three surviving concrete arch deck bridges in Nevada. Its significance chiefly arises from this fact, and from its comparatively early construction date (it is not, however, the oldest surviving Reno bridge or, even, the oldest surviving Reno bridge of its type). The original concrete railings were replaces just after World War II by the present steel railings.
