Viewing Album:  Bridge 16
 
By:Fred Stuckmann
Dates:4/20/2010 - 4/20/2010
Album Info:We called it that when I was on Pennsy property. It crosses the Ohio & Erie Canal, which is today accompanied by a nicely designed and built boardwalk. It's not your typical park setting, since it travels mostly through an industrial area, but there are rewards as you will see.
