Imagining A Bridge Across The Narrows: David Steinman, The Engineer Who Predicted The Fall

Wednesday, November 18, 2026•6:30 PM7:30 PM
In this talk by HHM Director Stephanie Lile, we’ll journey back to 1928 when David Steinman’s first concept drawings were released to the public and ponder why the man who ultimately built the famed Mackinac Bridge was not hired to complete one across the Narrows. Steinman was the first engineer to conceptualize the Narrows Bridge and was dedicated, heart and soul, to suspension bridges.
