National Register
The Old Blenheim Bridge spanned Schoharie Creek at North Blenheim and was built in 1855 by Nicholas Powers. Its double barreled Long truss with a central arch made it one of the longest single span covered bridges in the world, and it was designated a National Historic Landmark. The original bridge was destroyed by flooding from Hurricane Irene in 2011, and a faithful reconstruction was completed in 2018. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1966.
