As State engineer Mr. Sweet's efforts were strenuously exerted to restoring to the engineering department of the State government the control of all engineering questions and matters in which the State was concerned, many of which had formerly been entrusted to irresponsible commissions or to other departments of the State administrations; and it is largely due to his labors that the office of State en- gineer now exercises most of the functions appropriate to the usefulness and diguitv of that... constitutional office.
Since the expiration of his second term as State engineer on December 31, 1887, Mr. Sweet has successfully followed his profession as a civil and consulting engi- neer and also as president and trustee of the Hilton Bridge Construction Company. In the prosecution of structural engineering he has introduced many improvements in the design of movable bridges and bridges of long spans, the most notable per- haps being the combination of the arch and the cantilever in the same structure originated by him and first used in his design for the great bridge connecting Capi- tol hill with Arbor hill in Albany, and which has since been extensively copied in Europe and this country.
