Construction on the bridge, the second to cross this river, began in 1896, with Leffert L. Buck as chief engineer, Henry Hornbostel as architect and Holton D. Robinson as assistant engineer, and the bridge opened on December 19, 1903 . At the time it was constructed, the Williamsburg Bridge set the record for the longest suspension bridge span on Earth. The record fell in 1924, when the Bear Mountain Bridge was completed.

The streets of Williamsburg, capitol of 18th Century Virginia. Turmoil fills the streets . . . some proclaim "taxation without representation", others continue to support the king.
When the American spirit was in its youth, the language of America was different: Liberty, sir, was the primary object.
