Description
Gustav Lindenthal designed the Seventh Street Bridge in 1884, just three years after he designed the Smithfield Street Bridge. The two-span suspension toll bridge spanned the Allegheny River and connected Seventh Street (formally Irvine or Irwin Street) in Pittsburgh to Sandusky Street in the City of Allegheny, today known as the North Side neighborhood of Pittsburgh. The bridge was replaced in 1926 by a new self-anchored suspension bridge bearing the same name.
