History

Twin Bridges is a pair of bridges that cross the Ohio River between the cities of Owensboro, Kentucky and Spencer County, Indiana. The bridges are officially named the Glover H. Cary Bridge and the William H. Natcher Bridge, but they are commonly referred to as the "Twin Bridges" due to their similar appearance and close proximity to one another.

The Glover H. Cary Bridge, which is the older of the two, was completed in 1940 and originally known as the Owensboro Bridge. It was renamed in honor of Glover H. Cary, a former U.S. Congressman from Kentucky who was instrumental in securing funding for the bridge's construction. The bridge is a cantilever truss design and spans 4,622 feet across the Ohio River.
