Opening on March 10, 1989, the 10,646 foot long, 174 foot high Dames Point Bridge connected Arlington, the beaches, and Southside with the Northside of the city. We may take it for granted unless the bridge is closed because of an accident, but this 25th birthday celebrating bridge saves about 70,000 cars and trucks from having to drive many extra miles and cross one of the downtown bridges every single day.
