43rd Street Pedestrian Bridge
| Pedestrian Walkway Over Railroad (Canadian National, Southshore, and Metra Railroad) | Chicago: Cook County, Illinois | Metal Riveted Pratt Through Truss, Stationary | 0 By: Unknown |
This bridge is perhaps not the most attractive truss bridge, but it offers more detail than the later bridges of this style which would be welded. Instead, this bridge offers a look at how pedestrian overpasses were designed in a period where hot metal riveting was still in use. The majority of this bridge's beams are riveted angles.
