Bridge Documentation

This bridge no longer exists!

Bridge Status: This historic bridge was demolished and replaced in 2019!

It is unclear why a 24 foot wide heavy duty 1930s riveted pony truss could not have been rehabilitated to continue to provide a historic iconic gateway to Fish Island Park.

This bridge which today serves a dead-end of Canal Street on this island, appears to be the northern half of what was originally the old NY-180 crossing of Black River. There appears to have once been another bridge at the south end of the island that led to Old State Road providing a complete river crossing. A historical photo shows this arrangement with the previous bridge at this location, a through truss.
