Summary

[edit]
Description
English: 3 bridges at the "Augustine Cut-off" in Wilmington, Delaware, from Brandywine Park. The smallest is a pedestrian suspension bridge in the park. The next bridge, a stone arch, is the CSX Brandywine River railroad bridge (built 1910 by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad (B&O)). The furthest away is the Augustine Bridge, a truss bridge built in 1885 for railroad use by the B&O, and converted to vehicular use in 1920. Brandywine Park encompasses the canyon of Brandywine Creek as it flows to tidewater - very historic place for water powered industry - designed in part by Fredrick Law Olmstead. The Park has been on the NRHP since December 22, 1976. The park (Historic District) is roughly bounded by Augustine, 18th, and Market Sts. and Lovering Ave. and is now considered to be park of "Wilmington State Parks."
