Area celebrates landmark bridge MAGGIE ROTERMUND, Baxter Bulletin, AR
One of his most vivid memories of that time is a man falling off the unfinished bridge, while working on a handrail, into three feet of water in the White River.
'He just got up and went to go look after his hat,' Ott said with a grin.
Ott was the last worker on the bridge. He stood guard for a week, waiting on the engineer to come and sign off on the bridge.
'I walked around mostly,' Ott said of his solitary week suspended above the water on the 1,850-foot-long bridge.------------------------------------------- posted 6:52 AM :: reference link ::
