The First Avenue Bridge is a historic structure located in downtown Cedar Rapids, Iowa, United States.

He had all of the concrete work above the original arches torn out and the bridge rebuilt as an open-spandrel structure.

The rebuild also included a wider deck to accommodate increased traffic and aluminum railings.

While the bridge's original structural integrity has been compromised, this is the first notable concrete spandrel arch reconstruction in Iowa and possibly in the country.
