Canuck_AV8R,
It is indeed the very same bridge; although, I guess, technically there are several spans. From what I understand (the crash you mention predates my time in the area), the northbound-side bridge -- the one closest to DCA -- was the one most involved.
As I spend a considerable portion of my commute on that bridge, I'm thankful that the view of the aircraft either taking off or landing is so dramatic...though I often wonder (usually while gazing out the sunroof at the overflying landing gear) how much the view contributes to the traffic.
