John EricssonJohn Ericsson invented the caloric (heat) engine, as well as a steam condensor that allowed a steamer to produce fresh water while at sea. He is best remembered, however, as being the designer and builder of the USS Monitor, a unique ironclad ship that incorporated many elements still used in warship designs today.
Eads BridgeThe Eads Bridge, at St. Louis, Missouri, was the first major bridge over the Mississippi River, the first rail bridge over the Mississippi, and the world's first steel-truss bridge. Completed in 1874, it still carries light rail, automobile and pedestrian traffic today.
