The Silver Memorial Bridge

The Silver Memorial Bridge spans the Ohio River and connects Gallipolis, Ohio to Henderson, West Virginia. The bridge was completed in 1969, two years after the collapse of the original Silver Bridge, which occurred on December 15, 1967. 46 people lost their lives in that disaster, and in the years since many have attempted to tie the tragedy to then-reported sightings of the Mothman near Point Pleasant, WV. I lived in Point Pleasant and attended junior high school there back in the 1970's.
