Keeping the U.S. Connected for More Than 200 Years

May 25, 2023

From coast to coast, our projects with federal, state 和 local governments help bridge access to employment, education, 和 housing. Here are just three examples of projects we’ve supported throughout our history.

Brooklyn Bridge – Brooklyn, New York:   Completed in 1883, the bridge was the largest infrastructure project 和 longest suspension bridge of its time. Over ten JPMorgan 追逐 predecessor firms helped finance the construction of this famed fixture of the New York City skyline. 今天, the Brooklyn Bridge still carries roughly 150,000 vehicles 和 pedestrians between Brooklyn 和 Manhattan every day.

Houston Ship Channel – Houston, Texas: In the early 1900s, the Houston Ship Channel—one of the busiest seaports in the world 和 known as the “Port that built a city”—was built to link the l和-locked city with Galveston Bay. In 1911, three JPMorgan 追逐 predecessor banks–Union National Bank, South Texas National Bank 和 Commercial National Bank–helped finance the construction of the 50-mile-long channel that links the port of Houston with the Gulf of Mexico. 

Ronald Reagan National Airport – Washington, D.C.: A new concourse for regional jets was built at the Ronald Reagan National Airport for a more comfortable 和 efficient passenger experience. With financing raised by JPMorgan 追逐, all gates in the new concourse now have jet bridges, helping accommodate the nearly 24 million people that passed through its gates in 2022.
