Roebling Museum Tour
Create a wire cable for an incline railway to lift canal barge traffic over the Allegheny mountains. Leverage that knowledge to create a wire suspension cable for bridges, and use that technology to build the most enduring symbol of suspension bridges in the world, the Brooklyn Bridge. The MIT Club of the Delaware Valley will learn, in a docent-led tour, about those achievements and more about the growth of a 120 year old family owned business when we visit the Roebling Museum. |
