Squaw Creek Bridge

The Squaw Creek Bridge was located in Harrison Township in rural Boone County, Iowa, United States. It spanned Squaw Creek for 76 feet (23 m).[2] The Boone County Board of Supervisors awarded a contract to the N.E. Marsh & Son Construction Company of Des Moines in August 1917 for $6,278.[2] Designed by Des Moines engineer James B. Marsh, the Marsh arch bridge was completed the same year. The bridge was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1998.[1]
