Moving
on to the east, this view shows the original 22nd Street Viaduct.
This wooden structure carries vehicles, pedestrians and the new
streetcars across the railroad reservation without the danger and delay
associated with the trains.
In
the coming years, the City leaders would work hard to build additional
viaducts across the tracks. Eventually, the tracks themselves
would be raised, and underpasses as well as viaducts would be used to
cross the busy railroad corridor. |
