Moody Caption - The Tom Greene, Suspen- sion Bridge in Background This photo must be returned to OHIO WRITERS' PROJECT 8 E. Chestnut St., Columbus, O." The John A. Roebling Suspension Bridge spans the Ohio River between Cincinnati, Ohio and Covington, Kentucky. When the first pedestrians crossed on December 1, 1866, it was the longest suspension bridge in the world at 1, 057 feet (322 m) main span. Greene Line Steamers was established in 1890 by Captain Gordon C. Greene and his wife, Captain Mary Greene. Based in Cincinnati, their steamships traveled primarily on the Ohio River, tranporting freight between the east and west. In the 1920's, as railroads took over most freight transport, Greene Line Steamers survived by building larger and more modern steamships, limiting their transport to shorter trade routes, and by pioneering the business of passenger pleasure cruises. The company is perhaps most notable for purchasing the 'Delta Queen' in 1946, the last original and operational sternwheel steamboat that is a U.S. National Historic Landmark. After Tom Greene, son of Gordon C. Greene, died unexpectedly in 1950, Greene Line Steamers came under hard financial times and eventually folded in 1958. View on Ohio Memory.
