This is now a pedestrian bridge, but it used to be an old railroad bridge. My great-grandfather saved it from being blown up, back in the 20s or 30s. He was on the bridge and overheard some guys talking about exploding it. He saw the dynamite and wires and whatever. He went and told a cop, who arrested the men. Pretty cool.
