North Pier256 viewsThis was the north-side pier that held the main span across the river.
|
|
Road Signs and Crumbled Decking254 viewsA lot of major roads come together just south of the bridge, and these signs indicated which lanes to stay in depending on which route you wanted.

Collapse from Stone Arch Bridge250 viewsIf you enlarge the picture, you can see some of the green structural members jutting upward, as well as some of the concrete decking in the river underneath and the lock/dam structure. In the background is the 10th Avenue Bridge, where most of the later pictures in this album were taken (it was closed at the time we took the ones on the Stone Arch Bridge).

West River Parkway250 viewsThis is normally a scenic river parkway with adjacent bike and walking paths.

Collapse from 10th Avenue Bridge246 viewsThis was one of our first glimpses as we started walking along the 10th Avenue Bridge the day after it re-opened. The 10th Avenue Bridge was just a block or two from the 35W bridge, so the details of the collapse were much more clear.

|
North pier tilted245 viewsThe north pier was tilted badly toward the river, but this is likely due to the collapse, not the cause of it.

Collapse from 10th Avenue Bridge234 viewsAnother picture from the same vantage point as the previous.

Southern View229 viewsAnother view from the north end of the 10th Avenue Bridge

Collapse from Stone Arch Bridge223 viewsAgain, best seen if enlarged. At the time these pictures were taken, there were still a number of bodies unrecovered and the recovery effort was in full swing.
