The Bridge of Dreams is a 370-foot covered bridge located near Brinkhaven, Ohio. Originally built in the 1920s as a railroad bridge, and covered in 1998. At 370 feet or ~ 113 meters long, it is the second longest covered bridge in Ohio after the Smolen–Gulf Bridge, and third longest covered bridge in the United States.
Its access is for pedestrians, bikers, and Amish only. You’d see many horse carriages cross this bridge!
Skeptics of this expensive plan claimed that its proponents were “dreaming”, which led backers to use the name “Bridge of Dreams” for the structure.
