Creator
Taylor, Frank H. (Frank Hamilton), 1846-1927
Title
Building the Bridge, 1923
Date
ca. 1923
Description
Reproduction of a drawing depicting a construction site on the water. Wooden scaffolding holds up cranes, with boats stationed nearby. Two men watch from the foreground.
Notes
This powerful group of derricks, in use, when sketched, at the foot of Race Street, in the early months of 1923, rise in their strength, as a promise of fulfillment. Guided by the brain and hand of unseen men of skill they are clearing the way and delivering the material wich goes into the making of the great bridge which will soon span the Delaware river and bring millions of people into closer touch at a vast and constant saving of time and money.
