Battle of Bayonne « « Business Facilities | The Location AdvisorBusiness Facilities | The Location Advisor: "More than 80 years after it was built, the Bayonne Bridge is about to rise again.
When the Bayonne Bridge was completed in 1931, the American Institute of Steel Construction declared the elegant span connecting New Jersey and Staten Island “the most beautiful steel bridge open to traffic in the United States.” The decision to use a single, innovative, arch-shaped truss to span the Kill Van Kull waterway was inspired in part by its beauty, said chief bridge designer Othmar H. Ammann at the dedication ceremony on Nov. 14, 1931."
