Historic Bridge No. 18 at Rock Creek stands as one of the most remarkable surviving engineering landmarks along old Route 66 in Sapulpa, Oklahoma. Built in 1924 by the Concrete and Steel Construction Company of New York, this rare Parker through truss bridge once carried generations of travelers across Rock Creek during the golden age of America’s Mother Road. Stretching 120 feet long and 18 feet wide, the bridge was considered a bold and modern design for its era and remains one of only two surviving Parker through truss bridges associated with historic Route 66.

What makes this bridge especially unique is its original brick roadway deck, with many of the bricks still dating back to the bridge’s original 1924 construction. The weathered steel framework, textured brick surface, and surrounding Oklahoma landscape create a powerful blend of industrial history and Americana nostalgia. Recently restored as part of Sapulpa’s Route 66 park project, the bridge continues to celebrate the spirit of classic American road travel and preservation.

Perfect for rustic, industrial, vintage travel, and Americana-inspired décor, this Route 66 artwork looks beautiful in living rooms, offices, man caves, restaurants, and collectors’ spaces. Available as museum-quality paper, canvas, and metal prints, as well as framed and unframed options and specialty gift items including mugs, totes, puzzles, and more.
