Built in 1925, this bridge is the only remaining King Post Bridge in Wisconsin and is unique for its all-metal King Post construction. It originally stood in front of the Port Brewery and spanned Valley Creek in Lower Lake Park. In the early 1930's, it was moved to its present location over Sauk Creek at the request of the Wisconsin Electric Power Company, which was building its Port Washington Plant. In 1987, the National Park Service certified it as significant using criteria for the National Register of Historic Places. In 1997, the Wisconsin Trust for Historic Preservation selected it as one of the ten most endangered historic properties in the state, and the City of Port Washington restored it in 2009.
