This beautiful bridge in Cincinnati is the prototype for the Brooklyn Bridge

John A. Roebling suspension bridge in Cincinati is a beautiful sight, but even more beautiful when seen from above. This drone takes you on a tour of the shore of the Ohio River where the bridge crosses the gap, joining two sides of this incredible city.
The John A. Roebling Suspension Bridge, often simply referred to as the Roebling Suspension Bridge, is a historic and iconic structure that spans the Ohio River, connecting Cincinnati, Ohio, and Covington, Kentucky. The bridge was designed by John A. Roebling, a pioneering civil engineer known for his work on suspension bridges.
Construction began in 1856 and was completed in 1866, making it the longest suspension bridge in the world at that time, with a main span of 1,057 feet (322 meters). The bridge features Roebling's patented design, which includes the use of wrought iron for the cables and stone towers for support.
Its design served as a prototype for Roebling's later and more famous project, the Brooklyn Bridge in New York City. The bridge remains in use today, accommodating both vehicular and pedestrian traffic.
It is a popular tourist attraction, offering stunning views of the Cincinnati skyline and the Ohio River. The bridge is an iconic symbol of Cincinnati and is often featured in local imagery and promotional materials.
It has been a backdrop for various cultural and community events over the years.
The Roebling Suspension Bridge stands as a testament to 19th-century engineering prowess and continues to be a vital link and landmark in the Cincinnati area.
