Echo Bridge
Bring a little Newton and Needham home.
Metal Art Sign · 7 × 5 inches
At the end of a few errands, setting down your keys leaves a moment to notice the view near the door. 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. Give it a small indoor wall space where the picture can be seen.
