The Deer Isle Bridge, constructed 1937-1939, is a brightly colored suspension bridge connecting mainland Maine with Deer Isle, an island in Penobscot Bay, by way of Little Deer Isle. Designed by Holton Robinson and David Steinman, the Deer Isle Bridge, due to wind stability issues, has since been modified to include swooping cables for support, which hang over its two narrow lanes spanning 1,088 feet across the Eggemoggin Reach.
