Significance: Designed, fabricated and erected by the St. Louis Bridge and Iron Company in 1888, the through truss on the Santa Fe Bridge originally spanned the South Fork of the Salt River one mile south of the small town of Florida. The South Florida Bridge carried heavy vehicular traffic as a regionally important crossing until its replacement in the late 1920s. In 1931-32 one of its three spans was moved and re-erected at this site just south of Santa Fe, where it has since functioned in place with minimal alterations. This Pratt through truss displays typical wrought iron configuration and pin-connected detailing for its period of construction. It is technologically significant as the last remaining example in Monroe County from what was once a large collection of 19th century wrought iron spans.
