The grand and ambitiously-proportioned bridge was supported by cables that stretched over six pairs of 26-metre-tall pylons, in each of which cast iron was used in place of masonry. However, in March 1869, a violent storm seriously damaged one of the columns and parts of the deck began tilting precariously. Fearing its imminent collapse, the bridge was demolished and eventually replaced with a new design by Gustave Eiffel.
