Additional Details:
Dedicated October 12, 1939 The Calvin Coolidge Memorial Bridge, which was dedicated on October 12, 1939, is some 1440 feet long, and with a road width of 40 feet, and a 10 foot sidewalk. Cost of the bridge is 11/2 million dollars, and this fine improved structure serves two purposes. It acts as a protection from the numerous Connecticut River floods and a fitting tribute to Northampton's first citizen, Calvin Coolidge.
