At this location, a 110-foot-long concrete arch bridge carried State Route 821 over the West Fork of Duck Creek into Caldwell. Built in 1930 as part of a larger roadway improvement contract for the city of Caldwell, it was designed by engineers L. W. Curl and W. W. Flemming in the Ohio Department of Highway’s Bureau of Bridges and constructed by W. H. Heiby of Marietta for $46,406.00. On May 24, 1930, wooden forms for the concrete arches collapsed during construction, injuring several workers and allowing large amounts of freshly poured concrete to escape and settle in the middle of Duck Creek. In June 1930, the hardened concrete was blasted with dynamite and the debris removed so construction could continue. The bridge was considered historic as a representative example of a single-span concrete-filled arch, distinguished by its curved alignment and neoclassical detailing, with balustrade railing, relief on the abutment sides, wing walls, and arches showing the influence of the Art Deco style popular in the late 1920s and 1930s. The deteriorated structure was replaced in 2002 to improve safety and accommodate modern highway traffic on State Route 821 at this crossing.
