Seeing the innards of a bridge during construction or upgrading is always a fascinating sight. This image of the Columbia Street bridge must have been taken after a 1964 inspection that notes several structural deficiencies. Originally built for vehicular traffic in 1895, it became a pedestrian bridge in the 1970s. The Columbia Street bridge crosses Six Mile Creek.
