YIKES!!! The Wheeling Suspension Bridge was orginally designed by John Roebling's competitor Charles Ellet. It is possible that his nephew Washington Roebling was involved in the redesign after its collapse in the 1850's. Calling it Roebling's Bridge would be considered heresy here in Wheeling. Nice pic, though!!
