Villarán Bridge
The Villarán Bridge (Spanish: Puente de Villarán), also known as the Canóvanas Bridge, is a historic bridge over the Canóvanas River in Canóvanas, Puerto Rico. Built in 1892 on the 19th century highway between Río Piedras and Río Grande, its iron superstructure was imported from Europe and set on masonry abutments. It is the best preserved example of an Eiffel pony truss bridge in Puerto Rico or the United States. By 1994, the bridge had been replaced by an adjacent span for vehicular use, but it remained open for pedestrian use.
