Before John A. Roebling designed the Brooklyn Bridge, he used his engineering talents to built several aqueducts. In fact, the oldest remaining wire rope suspension bridge is a Roebling aqueduct and his work put into action ideas that changed the way bridges were built forever.

In a virtual lecture Professor Paul C. King from the department of Architectural Technology at New York City College of Technology will share details about Roebling's approach to engineering suspension aqueducts.
