Description
The Civil Works Administration (CWA) constructed a 27-foot span carrying a road over Moon Creek near Americus, Kansas. “The Moon creek bridge, 1 1/2 miles west and a half mile north of the Ruggles schoolhouse, has been completed.”
The exact location of the former school (and, thus, this bridge project) is presently unknown to Living New Deal.
