Notes
  • Significance: Erected in 1903, the Adelaide Avenue Pedestrian Bridge is significant for its association with the Gorham Manufacturing Company, a large ornamental metal manufacturer. This former employee footbridge is a relatively early example of a steel girder bridge as well as an unusual surviving example of a railroad footbridge.
  • Survey number: HAER RI-50
  • Building/structure dates: 1903 Initial Construction
