Echo Bridge
Bring a little Newton and Needham home.
Ceramic Mug · White · 11 oz
A cup at the kitchen table gives the morning a small pause. Echo Bridge's stone arch crosses the Charles at Upper Newton Falls, with the smaller Ellis Street arch giving the structure a second local relationship.
Echo Bridge was constructed in 1876–1877 as part of the Sudbury Aqueduct, completed in 1878. Its stone arch crosses the Charles at Upper Newton Falls; a smaller arch spans Ellis Street. The bridge is a reminder that the river landscape carried water-supply infrastructure as well as roads and industry.
The aqueduct bridge connects this river landscape with water supply, a useful distinction from the road and railway crossings elsewhere along the Charles. Use it at the kitchen table or carry the next cup over to the desk, keeping the view beside an ordinary break.
