Fargo Bridge & Iron Co.

Fargo Bridge & Iron Co. was a bridge company based in North Dakota in the early part of the 20th century. It grew out of a partnership between Francis E. Dibley, who had previously been a representative of the Wisconsin Bridge and Iron Company, and W. H. Robinson, from Mayville. It was the state's dominant bridge-building company in its day, and its works include many bridges that are now listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places.[1][2]
