Notes
  • Significance: The N.J. Route 35 Bridge is a typical example of a single span, steel encased thru-girder highway overpass built during the tenure of Morris Goodkind, chief bridge engineer for the New Jersey State Highway Department from 1925 to 1955. Goodkind emphasized the integration of architecture and aesthetics in bridge design and received awards from the American Society of Civil Engineers and the American Institute of Steel Construction for his designs. The Route 35 Bridge has intricate architectural detailing that capitalizes on the sculptural qualities of poured concrete used in combination with decorative tiles and cast aluminum. The bridge is part of the Perth Amboy Bypass, which the New Jersey Department of Transportation designed in 1937 to alleviate traffic congestion through Woodbridge and Perth Amboy, New Jersey.
