Harmony Hill Bridge Sep 2005 003.jpg

Located at the intersection of Harmony Hill Road and Route 322, Harmony Hill Bridge has probably inspired as many "ooh -- could that have been a covered bridge?" reactions as any. I know that was my first reaction to it, as I drove down Route 322 as a new Pennsylvania resident. Also known as Gibson's Bridge, Harmony Hill is a handsome white bridge with a distinctive stepped portal.
