Great Bridge (Cambridge)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Great Bridge over the Charles River connected Cambridge, Massachusetts to Little Cambridge, which was the name for Allston-Brighton before it separated from Cambridge in 1807, first becoming the town of Brighton and finally joining the city of Boston in 1874. The Great Bridge was built in 1660-1662, and was the first bridge to span the Charles.
The Great Bridge was at the site of the modern-day Anderson Memorial Bridge connecting John F. Kennedy Street in Cambridge to North Harvard Street in Allston.
