The Le Grand Bridge in Le Grand, Iowa was built in 1896.[1]
It brings Abbott Avenue over the Iowa River. Since Abbott Avenue is the border between Marshall and Tama County, the bridge is in two counties lengthwise. Many bridges span from one county across to another, but few are lengthwise split. The bridge has since collapsed.
