The #QuebecBridge-spanning the #StLawrenceRiver-was a long time coming. Begun in 1903, the bridge collapsed in 1907, killing 75 workers. Work resumed, & the bridge collapsed again. It finally opened to public traffic OTD in 1919, and remains the world’s longest cantilever bridge.

#OTD 1907, high above the St. Lawrence, a worker on the #QuebecBridge noticed a rivet snapped. As he called to his foreman, the giant cantilever crashed into the river. Of the 86 workers on the bridge that day, 75 died, many of them Mohawks of Kahnawá:ke.https://t.co/FYgOUUeKR3
At the time of the tragic collapse of the #QuebecBridge in 1907, the #Quebec Bridge and Railway Company was headed by Simon-Napoléon Parent: https://t.co/Vn8v4n8xdv. The bridge was later re-built and completed under Phelps Johnson: https://t.co/uy9ufz5aeh. #CdnHist #CdnHistory
