Spanning the Mississippi by sunnygreenwood

Spanning the Mississippi

Another pic of a local unique 5-span bridge, this time from water level without much sign of any ice or snow. I've shown it a few times here at 365 in various seasons and from different views. Here's copy/paste of some of what I said last time if anyone's interested in a tiny bit of the history.

"It's a special bridge, unique in North America, and perhaps in the whole world. It is composed of five masonry arches that span 268 feet (82 m) to cross the Mississippi River in Pakenham, Ontario. It as built by Scottish stone masons in 1903. Locals are proud of the fact that it was the subject of one of the questions on the popular American game show Jeopardy a while back. Alex Trebek [Canadian host] likes the Canadian questions! ;-)"
