Caption

The Pakenham Stone Bridge built in 1901 crosses the Mississippi River at the Village of Pakenham in the Municipality of Mississippi Mills in Ontario, Canada. This bridge is the only 5 arch masonry stone bridge on the North American continent. The bridge measure 268 feet (82 m) long by 22 feet (7.5 m) wide. Each arch is 40 feet (12 m with a 2 metre rise). The piers are 8 feet thick in order to withstand the pressure of the crashing ice flows and high water levels in the spring. The original cost of the bridge in 1901 was $14,500.00 CDN.
