Hardenburgh, Ulster County

The Myers Covered Bridge is a non-historic bridge located in the Dry Brook Valley south of Arkville in the town of Hardenburgh in Ulster County. The bridge carries Dry Brook Road over the Dry Brook. It is located one mile south from the Tappan Covered Bridge. The original covered bridge was constructed in 1906 by Salem Jerome Moot using the Kingpost Truss design. Unfortunately, this bridge did not stand the test of time and was replaced in 1990 with a modern steel stringer bridge with the wood siding and roof added to take on the appearance of an old covered bridge. The current bridge is owned by Ulster County and is open to vehicular traffic. The bridge is named for the Myers family, who once owned the adjacent estate as a summer home.
