Balustrade Restoration on Arlington Memorial Bridge

Two large slabs of granite, the piece on the right is restored and cleaned. The piece on the left has dirt marks still on it.

In December 2018, a contractor finished removing some of the most visible and monumental pieces of the bridge from one side. The contractor carefully removed, packed and transported the bridge's granite balustrade to an off-site location for comprehensive cleaning and repair. The piece of granite on the right has been restored.
