Famous Bridge Of The State Of Seattle

Crossing the romantic Lake Washington (USA), 3 floating bridges of Seattle were once known as "bridges of the future". Travel to America admire the famous floating bridges of the state of Seattle Floating bridges, or bridges buoys, are temporary structures often built from wood during times of emergency. However, Evergreen Point is made entirely of reinforced concrete and is the longest floating bridge in the world spanning Lake Washington of Seattle, USA. The bridge is 4.75km long, the second longest floating bridge in the world, Lacey V

. Murrow just a few kilometers south. Floating bridge must be built because the bridge is located in complicated geographical location of Lake Washington . The lake bottom is too soft for a normal pier, and building a suspension bridge is too expensive At the end of 1930, the idea of a floating bridge was first proposed by engineer Homer Hadley.



He worked for a World War I concrete barge design company and offered to connect the hollow barge, leading to the Lacey V. Murrow Bridge. Following the success of the first project, Evergreen Point was officially born in 1963.
