The Albert Habhab Veterans Memorial Bridge on First Avenue South was dedicated on Veterans Day this week. An effort to turn the bridge into a true monument to veterans, entirely with donations, is underway. A sign bearing its name is in place. Emblems of the branches of the United States military and folded American flags have been added to the lamp posts, as shown here. On Monday, Mayor Matt Bemrich described the bridge as a “beacon of unity and unwavering gratitude.”
