Located in Washington, D.C., the Frederick Douglass Memorial Bridge is a through arch bridge that spans the Anacostia River, providing a vital link for commuters traveling between Prince George's County, Maryland, and downtown D.C. Originally completed in 1950 as the South Capitol Street Bridge, it was renamed in 1965 in honor of abolitionist Frederick Douglass. In 2021, the bridge underwent a major reconstruction project, replacing the aging swing bridge with a modern structure to accommodate the daily traffic of over 77,000 commuters. The new Frederick Douglass Memorial Bridge features a longer span and enhanced design, serving as a key gateway to the revitalized industrial area surrounding Nationals Park and connecting to Interstate 295 and Suitland Parkway.Generated from the website
