Posted February 1, 200619 yr Anyone hear of these folks before? http://oldohiobridges.com/ohba.htm#"Official"%20OHBA%20web%20site
February 1, 200619 yr Have never heard of them. It looks like they offer two books and a set of maps for sale.
February 1, 200619 yr Yes I've heard of it, I'm its webmaster! Actually OHBA has been around for awhilte and is fairly well known among "bridgers". I've just taken over their website. Here are a couple of other sites about Ohio bridges: http://oldohiobridges.com http://oldbridges.blogspot.com email:[email protected]
February 1, 200619 yr Sadly only two of the old iron bridges listed remain in Hamilton County, the Roebling Bridge and a bridge in Indian Hill that I am not familiar with. Of the two that I really loved in Colerain township, crossing the Great Miami, one is gone, and the other will be removed this summer. :(
February 1, 200619 yr Anyone have a photo of the Roebling Suspension bridge that I could post on my site?

Magyar/Sandor
February 1, 200619 yr Anyone have a photo of the Roebling Suspension bridge that I could post on my site? Are you looking for anything specific? angle, day/night???
February 1, 200619 yr And here I was yesterday getting ready to e-mail you a link to the site and you're working on it. :lol: BTW, have you checked out the condition of that Porter Twp bridge you e-mailed me about? Magyar/Sandor Sandor! You're here. I didn't recognize your username! I haven't visited the Culver Ck bridge yet but now I know exactly where it is! Probably go this week. I shouldn't wait too long knowing Delaware County's love of the historic!

I like to use side views that show a lot of the bridge structure ( daylight would be better). Its more for documentation than artistic presentation. But everyone likes a well composed picture (I like your sig although it would not be the best for this use).

I shouldn't wait too long knowing Delaware County's love of the historic! Exactly. :lol: :cry: As compared to Morrow County which can't afford to upgrade many of their 80 year old bridges (untill they colapse underneith a heavy load)

February 2, 200619 yr Sandor, I visited that Porter Township bridge today. Its still there but scheduled to be removed next year.
February 2, 200619 yr Ask and you shall receive. All taken with a 6.3mp DSLR Thanks a lot. I used the middle one here http://oldohiobridges.com/county/hamilt.htm as it shows more of the bridge. All are great photos! If you want I will credit your real name. Just email me.
