Title A name given to the resource Brookwood Covered Bridge Subject The topic of the resource Covered bridges Description An account of the resource This covered bridge was located about 5 miles south of Brookwood, Ala., on Covered Bridge Road. It was thought to built about 1850 and was destroyed by fire in 1962. It was the last covered bridge in Tuscaloosa County. The bridge was constructed of heavy pine timbers put together by wooden pegs. The roof was of tin with nails, put there about 1945 when re-roofing was ordered by the Tuscaloosa County Board of Revenue. The board said the old bridge should be preserved as long as possible as a historical landmark in the county. The bridge stood about 50 feet over the waters of Hurricane Creek, supported by creosoted logs, part of them resting on an abridgement of solid rock. The bridge spanned 200 feet, with the covered portion 100 feet long. In an article in The Tuscaloosa News on Feb. 6, 1955, writer Bob Kyle said bridges like this one were used extensively in olden times when houses and towns were few and far between. The covered bridges provided wagon travelers places where they could spend nights out of the cold and rain. The bridge survived in good shape even when it was bypassed when the road was paved in 1957 and a new concrete and steel bridge built and the covered bridge was closed to traffic. The members of the Alabama Federation of Garden Clubs agreed to maintain and preserve the historic landmark. Dates before the Civil War were carved into the walls with lovers' initials and Cupid's hearts. Looking Back, Tuscaloosa News, August 21, 2017 In June of 1962, the bridge burned with arson suspected. By the time firefighters arrived, the middle section of the bridge had collapsed into Hurricane Creek. Ten University of Alabama students admitted they were possibly responsible for the fire; they said they had been picnicking and built a fire on the end of the bridge, but thought they had put out the fire before leaving. With no evidence to indicate any intent to burn the bridge, Circuit Solicitor Fred Nichol indicated that no criminal charges would be filed.

Title A name given to the resource Demolition of the Drawbridge Across the Black Warrior River, 1973 Subject The topic of the resource Drawbridges Black Warrior River (Ala.) Description An account of the resource A drawbridge over the Black Warrior River that connected Northport to Tuscaloosa was used until late 1973 when the new Hugh Thomas Bridge was opened. The drawbridge was built in 1922 at a cost of $196,511 on pillars that had been there since 1897. The pillars were encased in concrete when the drawbridge was built. By the mid-1960s, the bridge was in need of repair and closed several times for temporary repairs, frustrating motorists who were trying to get across the river. Fortunately, by that time, the Woolsey Finnell Bridge on the U.S. Hwy. 82 By-Pass was open, so there was an alternative route. That created traffic problems on University Boulevard, however. Work began in late 1968 on a new bridge to connect Northport and Tuscaloosa that was to become the Hugh Thomas Bridge. The bridge opened to traffic Dec. 17, 1973 at a cost of $7 million. Efforts were made to save the old drawbridge by the Tuscaloosa County Preservation Society and its president Marvin Harper, but efforts were too late and futile. The U.S. Coast Guard had issued a permit for construction of the new bridge stipulating that the old bridge be removed within 90 days of the opening of the new bridge. Though the Coast Guard had requested comments from the public before issuing the permit, evidently no requests for retention of the old bridge were received. So the old drawbridge disappeared into history.

Title A name given to the resource Drawbridge across the Black Warrior River Subject The topic of the resource Drawbridges Black Warrior River (Ala.) Description An account of the resource The drawbridge that connected Northport and Tuscaloosa was built in 1922 at a cost of about $200,000 and was the sixth bridge built over the Black Warrior River at Tuscaloosa. S.P. "Bill" Faucett, of Northport, was the first motorist to cross the new structure. The draw span lifted for boat passage, but often, according to an article from The Tuscaloosa News on June 6, 1993, its supposedly delicately balanced weights often jammed and kept motorists waiting until workmen could realign the draw. The drawbridge was replaced by the Hugh Thomas Bridge in 1972 and it was demolished shortly thereafter.
