Landmark of Civil War times doomed
Washington reports the historic Long Bridge over the Potomac has been torn down with no trace remaining. Built under congressional act funding, it opened May 20, 1809 and was burned in August 1814 to block British expeditions. Union troops crossed it in 1861 and after the war the Armies of Meade and Sherman used it to reach Washington. Two modern structures now replace it.
