The Fourteenth Street Bridge, used by travelers between the Nation's Capital and nearby Virginia, is 58 years old. Its rusty ironwork superstructure has led William E. Finley, executive director of the National Capital Planning Commission, to describe it as "horri,ble looking." A new span, the George Mason Bridge, erected alongside the existing structure, is slated for completion next year.

FOR, tEASE...

Original plans called for the demolition of the old bridge when the new one goes into sorvice. NCPC officials, however, voted 4 to 3 to retain the existing span for an indefinite period. The volume of rush-hour cross-river traffic was the influential factor in the vote.

In 1941, an underwater survey of the wood pilings purported to show that "the bridge would not last more than five years."
