The Donald and Morris Goodkind Bridges are a pair of bridges on U.S. Route 1 in the U.S. state of New Jersey. The bridges cross the Raritan River, connecting Edison on the north bank with New Brunswick on the south. The northbound span, a concrete arch bridge, is named after its designer, New Jersey Highway Department engineer Morris Goodkind. This span was completed in 1929 and reflects the Art Deco styling of the time. Originally named the College Bridge, it was renamed the Morris Goodkind Bridge on April 25, 1969.〔(New Jersey Historic Bridge Data: Middlesex ), accessed March 30, 2007〕 Morris had a son, Donald, who also became an architect and engineer for the New Jersey Department of Transportation. Donald designed the southbound bridge, a steel span bridge built in 1974, which was named after him in 2004. ==In popular culture== In the 1983 musical film ''Eddie and the Cruisers'', fictional rock band leader Eddie Wilson was believed to have drowned when his 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air went off the Morris Goodkind Bridge on March 15, 1964. In ''The Sopranos'' episode "Nobody Knows Anything," Detective Vin Makazian leaps to his death from the Donald Goodkind Bridge.〔(nj.com blog ), accessed July 26, 2007〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Sopranos location guide - Donald Goodkind Bridge )〕
