A moonlight view of the Chesapeake Bay Bridge, looking eastward, is shown in this July 1953 photo. When it first opened to traffic on July 30, 1952, what's popularly known today as the Chesapeake Bay Bridge was the third-longest in the world. Over 50 years, the architectural marvel accelerated trade, opened new markets to farmers and brought Ocean City beaches hours closer to tourists, single-handedly altering commerce in the Free State.
