Maraimalai Adigal Bridge : ウィキペディア英語版 | Maraimalai Adigal Bridge The Maraimalai Adigal Bridge (previously the Marmalong Bridge), is a road bridge on Anna Salai connecting the northern banks of the Adyar River with the southern. == History ==
The oldest bridge across the Adyar River - the Marmalong Bridge was originally constructed by the Armenian merchant, Coja Petrus Uscan, in 1728 at the cost of Rs. one lakh. The bridge was named after the nearby village of Mambalam which was Anglicized to Marmalan or Marmalong.〔 The dilapidated old bridge was replaced by a new one in 1966. The new bridge is named after Maraimalai Adigal, Tamil writer and proponent of the Pure Tamil movement. Uscan's construction of the bridge is commemorated by a plaque at the northern end of the bridge adjoining the Saidapet bus stand.〔
