X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>Built between 1869 and 1883\, without mode
 rn machines or even electric light was one of the most amazing technologic
 al achievements of its time. After her husband was&nbsp\;bedridden\, Emily
  Roebling became his liaison to the project - eventually communicating wit
 h the engineers and suppliers so well that it was rumored that she had bec
 ome the Chief Engineer herself! Later she helped design the family mansion
  in Trenton\, studied law\, organized relief for returning troops from the
  Spanish American War\, attended the coronation of the Tsar of Russia and 
 even took tea with Queen Victoria.&nbsp\;At her death\, she was called "th
 e most famous woman in New Jersey" and "one of the most noted women in the
  country\," yet today almost no one knows her name! <br /><br /></p>\nhttp
