Then & Now - Quezon Bridge
September 29, 2008Originally a suspension bridge constructed in 1852, this bridge was redesigned by Architect Gustave Alexander Eiffel as a modern steel bridge during that time. It was reopened to vehicular traffic in 1938, a year after the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco was inaugurated.
The newly constructed steel bridge in Quiapo had its nightmare when the Japanese forces barricaded the area during the Second World War.
