The First Street Bridge is a stone arch bridge in Merrill, Wisconsin, which carries First Street across the Prairie River. The bridge is long and has three arches. Each arch is bordered by an alternating pattern of single and double stones and is capped by keystones. Contractor Fred Hesterman built the bridge in 1904, replacing an existing bridge. The bridge is the only known three stone arch bridge in Wisconsin. Read more on Wikipedia
