1931,2013 Henley Street Bridge over Tennessee River in Knoxville, TN

(Archived Bridge Hunter; Historic Bridges; Satellite)

The largest span in this 1,793' (547m) long bridge is 317' (97m). [BridgeHunter]

As is typical of DOT project links, the link about the rehab project, http://www.tdot.state.tn.us/henley/, no longer works.

We can see the NS/Southern Bridge peaking through the arches.

HistoricBridges, this webpage has several construction photos
"This very large and impressive concrete arch bridge has been extensively rehabilitated. As a result of rehabilitation, structural condition is very good, but there was a notable loss of historic integrity: everything above the arch ribs and between the piers was demolished and replaced, albeit with new materials closely matching the original appearance. Thus, the piers and arch ribs are original, while columns, deck, deck stringers, and railing are all-new."
