History

The bridge was built by the Vincennes Bridge Company. Surveys began in 1933, construction started in December 1934, and the bridge was opened to traffic on May 14, 1936. It was named after Cordell Hull, who served as the 47th United States Secretary of State from 1933 to 1944. It was restored in the 2010s, and rededicated on July 2, 2012.

It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since November 20, 2009.
