Market Street Bridge is a distinguished concrete arch bridge over the Susquehanna River between Kingston and Wilkes-Barre, Luzerne County, Pennsylvania, designed by the architectural firm of Carrère and Hastings and built between 1926 and 1929. The bridge is 1,274.3-foot-long with twelve spans, including four main spans measuring 120-foot-long each. Six of the twelve arches are open spandrels. The architects designed four triumphal arches surmounted by limestone eagles with partially spread wings, intended as a memorial to veterans of the First World War. The paired pylons, two at each side of the bridge, are connected by a classical balustrade running the full length of the bridge.

In 1988, the bridge was listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
