Description

The view from the riverbed on the down-river side of the bridge shows one completed steel span and one partially completed span. A large, jumbled pile of broken and bent pilings and decking lies on the ground near the end of the unfinished span as a result of the derrick being blown over during a storm. The foreground appears to be overflow water from the river.
