The Talmadge Memorial Bridge spans the Savannah River between downtown Savannah, Georgia, and Hutchinson Island. The original cantilever bridge was built in 1953; a replacement bridge, named the Talmadge Memorial Bridge, was completed in 1991.
Reflection of the bridge on a window of the riverfront building creates an interesting image.
