The Lincoln Construction Company was an American construction company in Nebraska. The company built several bridges in Nebraska between 1913 and 1916. A state engineer, after inspecting one of the company's bridge, found that "the workmanship as a whole was decidedly poor" and recommended suspending all payments on the bridge until the "poor appearance" was remedied. Company president, W.S. Collett, stated that the company's experience in the bridge business had been "more or less disastrous, from a financial point... which leads me to the conclusion that I had better quit while my credit remains good."

  • The Lincoln Construction Company was an American construction company in Nebraska. The company built several bridges in Nebraska between 1913 and 1916. A state engineer, after inspecting one of the company's bridge, found that "the workmanship as a whole was decidedly poor" and recommended suspending all payments on the bridge until the "poor appearance" was remedied. Company president, W.S. Collett, stated that the company's experience in the bridge business had been "more or less disastrous, from a financial point... which leads me to the conclusion that I had better quit while my credit remains good." Despite the findings of the state engineer, five of the bridges built by Lincoln Construction Company have been listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
