Summary

Description

Originally begun in 1881 for the New York, Lake Erie & Western Railroad to ship coal, lumber, and oil, it was once the world's highest and longest rail viaduct. Rebuilt in 1900 to carry heavier loads, it was in service until 1959. Kinzua Bridge State Park was created here in 1963. In 2003, an F-1 tornado partially destroyed the viaduct. Remaining towers were restored and the skywalk constructed in 2011.
