The Coral Springs Covered Bridge is a 40 ft covered bridge located in Coral Springs, Florida and was the first permanent structure built in the city. The only publicly accessible covered bridge in Florida, it has also been honored with a Florida Heritage Site Marker. ==Structure and design==
It was designed by George Hodapp and constructed in early 1964 by Lewie Mullins, and George Porter, all Coral Ridge Properties employees. The 40-foot bridge has a single steel span that crosses N.W. 95th Avenue just south of Wiles Road.〔http://www.coralsprings.com/article1/covered_bridge_award.htm〕 Its roof is composed of 25 truss rafters, cross braces and stringers and is covered with shingles.〔Florida Historical Marker Program http://www.flheritage.com/preservation/markers/markers.cfm?ID=broward〕 Originally painted barn red, James S. Hunt, president of Coral Ridge Properties, wanted to convey a sense of the Old South on the otherwise barren landscape. Hunt's vision for Coral Springs was of a totally planned "City in the Country" with brick colonial-style public buildings, boulevards planted with flowers and the Covered Bridge as its centerpiece.〔City of Coral Springs: History http://www.coralsprings.org/history/CoveredBridge.cfm〕
