Coleman Bridge

Coleman bridge taken from the bank of Singapore river

The coleman bridge was built in 1840 of brick but after several years it was demolished to build a timber bridge which was also later destroyed and replaced with a iron bridge. But the iron could not support the traffic traveling across it and was torn down and in 1990 the current concrete bridge was built. The bridge was named after named after George Drumgoole Coleman (1795–1844), an Irish architect and Singapore's first architect.
