Casino Bridge Casino Way Over Canoe Stream Detroit: Wayne County, Michigan Metal Stringer, Stationary 1893 By: King Bridge Company of Cleveland, Ohio

All that remains of this King Bridge Company bridge is the ornate guardrails with cast iron posts and the bronze plaques at the center of the span. Although the actual structure is gone, the beautiful guardrails and plaques that were a part of the old bridge still remain, and are worth a visit if you happen to be on Belle Isle. A similar bridge is nearby, the Central Avenue Bridge, which has also been demolished and had the railings set on a new bridge in the same way as well.
