Hamden Covered Bridge Update: December 10
Date: Sun, 10 Dec 2000
Good Morning from chilly New York, Joe!
Irma Petras was kind enough to send me some photos she took of the Hamden Covered Bridge the day it was moved back across the water. I thought you might be interested in them as an update on your web site. Irma said to feel free to use any you would like.
I hope you are staying warm up there...we certainly are trying to here! Burrrrr it's cold!
Happy Holidays to you and yours,
Bob and Trish

Van Buiten of Oxford, NY moves the bridge using a cable on a Mack Truck.

Note the red and green steel I beams which the bridge rolled over and the progress of the bridge.

They did not place the bridge on the abutments the day of the move. It was left about 6 ft. short. It would be finished off the next few days.
