"…this bridge, when constructed, will possess great claims as a national monument. As a splendid work of art and as a remarkable specimen of modern engineering and construction, it will stand unrivaled upon the continent. Its gigantic features will speak loudly in favor of the energy and enterprise of the community which will boast of its possession."
— John A. Roebling 1846

On-line donors are eligible for a drawing to receive a “Trip to the Top of the Tower” for four people.
-- the drawing will be scheduled after the bridge painting project is complete. The group of four will be given a tour to the top of the Covington side tower where they will be able to take in the magnificent skylines of the Ohio River towns that the Roebling Bridge connects.
"Thanks to the wonderful folks at Berman Printing for their donation."
