The historic bridge on Main Street (CR-512) spans the South Branch of the Raritan River. It was originally built in 1887 By I. P. Bartley and Co. of Bartley, New Jersey and Massillon Bridge Company of Massillon, Ohio and has gone through two major renovations in its life. It no longer functions as a truss type bridge, instead the original trusses are decorative in nature, having been placed on load-bearing steel stringers. Additionally as part of this alteration the bridge was widened. The deck was completely replaced in 2014.
