My Native Heath
The Smithfield Street Bridge, in Pittsburgh. It was built in1883 and has a lenticular truss. Not many of those left. HERE'S a good website about it. I used to walk across this every chance I got, in my younger days.
"All that is gold does not glitter, not all those who wander are lost; the old that is strong does not wither, deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, a light from the shadows shall spring; renewed shall be blade that was broken, the crownless again shall be king.”
