Crescent Bridge

This railroad bridge crosses the Mississippi River, connecting Rock Island, IL to Davenport, IO. Its name is derived because the tracks run parallel to the river on both sides, so a large curve was needed on either side of the bridge. It was constructed by the Phoenix Bridge Company and is still in use.
