Abram Platt Andrew Bridge

Posted on by charlene01930

The Abram Piatt Andrew Bridge, the crowning achievement of the decade long Route 128 (Yankee Division Highway) is the gateway to Cape Ann and has been my view for the past five years.  It was completed in 1953 and named for our Congressman(1921-1936) A. Platt Andrew.  It is a four lane, steel arch span over the Annisquam River.  To me it is a ever changing work of art, different in every light and every season.  One of the treasures of Cape Ann and Gloucester.

  2. This is very nice and i remember being out under this bridge on the hill 1966 and 1967 back during the pigeon craze of raising them and homing pigeons believe now it’s pretty sealed up there was a workman-s and inspection catwalk under the bridge then could be fenced off now! 🙂 Dave
