This post card view is facing east across the Flint river at Hamilton Avenue. This was the second bridge built and finished by 1911, "which is the postmark on this card". The sign the two gentleman are standing near says "Bathing Here Strictly Forbidden". Being called the second bridge is only correct if you do not count the second temporary suspension bridge built just before this proper bridge. Follow this bridge link for article on the first and second suspension bridge. |
