Old Northern Ave. Bridge, Fort Point Channel, Boston 1997 (Framed)
Photographed in 1997, this sweeping panoramic triptych and the symmetry of the swing bridge harmonize effortlessly as the three bridge sections reflect in the calm waters of the channel. Closed to traffic, the bridge is now in suspended animation. The Northern Avenue Bridge was constructed in 1908 spanning the active Fort Point Channel, then a major industrial transportation route. As constructed, it was an operable steel three-span, triple-barreled, Pratt-type through-truss bridge with a rim-bearing center span that swung open to allow for water traffic.
