A tribute to an abolitionist leader will see its resurrection in the New Frederick Douglass Memorial Bridge Project in Washington, D.C. The old bridge is years past its useful life, and construction is proceeding apace on the new span across the Anacostia River. The new bridge is more than just a span; it’s an essential component in a revitalization plan as pedestrian overlooks, piers, and arches are part of the project.
Even after 71 years, this historic bridge has been treasured and viewed as a symbol of unity and transparency between all Wards of the District of Columbia. Many gathered this Labor Day (September 6, 2021) to celebrate the opening of the new Fredrick Douglas Memorial Bridge. On this day, South Capital Bridge Builders hosted a 5K run. People enjoyed live music and food from various food trucks and performances from local groups and artist.
