Lattice trusses (sometimes called Warren Quadrangular trusses) range from uncommon to rare on a national scale, but are much more common locally in Wisconsin and particularly the Milwaukee, relatively speaking. This is because Chicago and Northwestern Railroad, whose former lines run through Wisconsin, built this bridge type frequently. This is an impressive example that is accessible by parking in the back of a large dog daycare center. In 2015, the bridge was bypassed and abandoned. It is lucky that it was not demolished! It seems perhaps the historic significance of the bridge has been recognized.
