The fabricated steel used in the construction of the Golden Gate Bridge was manufactured by plant in Trenton, New Jersey and Sparrows Point, Maryland and in three Pennsylvania towns: Bethlehem, Pottstown, and Steelton. The steel was loaded, in sections, onto rail cars, taken to Philadelphia and shipped through the Panama Canal to San Francisco. The shipment of the steel was timed to coincide with the construction of the bridge.
