Built in 1930–31 as part of the ambitious West Side Road project in Mount Rainier National Park, the St. Andrews Creek Bridge exemplifies National Park Service rustic architecture of the era. This stone-faced concrete arch bridge spans 26 feet and measures nearly 34 feet wide, accommodating a two-lane roadway. The West Side Road, which the bridge served, was intended to connect the Nisqually and Carbon River park entrances, though construction progressed slowly and only 13 miles were completed over six years. Recognized for its historical significance, the bridge was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1991 and remains a contributing property within the Mount Rainier National Historic Landmark District.
