The Eagles Have Landed – Taft Bridge, Connecticut Avenue N.W., Washington, D.C.
The Taft Bridge, also known as the Connecticut Avenue Bridge or William Howard Taft Bridge, is a historic bridge in Washington D.C. that carries Connecticut Avenue over the Rock Creek gorge.
Twenty-four lampposts are equally spaced along both sides of the Taft Bridge. Created by sculptor Ernest Bairstow in 1906 the lampposts are composed of concrete bases (approx. 5 ft. 8 in. high and 4 ft. wide) with painted iron lampposts (approx. 17 feet high and 4 feet wide) set in them. The pedestals are decorated with a garland and a fluted column featuring acanthus leaves at the top and bottom. Above the leaves is a horizontal bracket with two globes hanging from each side of the column. Each lamppost is topped with a painted iron eagle with its wings spread
