The Connecticut Avenue Bridge over Klingle Valley is an Art Deco bridge located near the Smithsonian National Zoological Park on Connecticut Avenue Northwest, Washington, D.C. The bridge crosses Klingle Valley and connects the Cleveland Park and Woodley Park neighborhoods. The concrete bridge features two historic lights on all four corners. A major rehabilitation of the bridge began in 2005 and included restored ornamental lanterns, refurbished masonry, and added street lights. In 2004, the bridge was listed on the National Register of Historic Places.[2][3]
