Description |
English: From 1902 to 1917, three temporary wooden bridges were built over the west water way of the Duwamish River, connecting Harbor Island to West Seattle (annexed in 1907). This panoramic view is facing east, depicting one of the old wooden bridges (right) next to the permanent steel bridge (left) near completion. The new bridge, a low-level bascule bridge, officially known as West Spokane Street Bridge No. 1 (North), opened on November 27, 1924, Thanksgiving Day, and was in use until 1978. James P. Lee (1894-1963) was the City of Seattle's Engineering Department photographer from 1922-1957.Handwritten on recto: Nearly Finished Business in image: West Waterway Lumber Co.; Fisher Flouring Mills Co.; Oregon Boiler Works; Caption information source: Seattle Daily Times, October 31, 1924, page 17
