" Waco Suspension Bridge is a 475-foot bridge that crosses the Brazos River in Waco, Texas. The bridge was opened in 1870 and remains a legendary icon of downtown Waco. For years, the bridge has served as a Chisholm Trail crossing, and at the time of its completion, it was the longest single-span suspension bridge west of the Mississippi. Waco Suspension Bridge was constructed with cable supplied by the John Roebling Co., who built the Brooklyn Bridge in New York City. The bridge is bounded by two great Waco parks, Indian Spring Park on the west and Martin Luther King, Jr. Park on the east side. Waco Suspension Bridge is the centerpiece of many community festivals and operates as a great venue for parties.
