24 The lower steel arch bridge
The lower steel arch bridge
There was a time, not many years ago, when only one suspension bridge spanned the river below the Falls. All this is changed now. Magnificent structures of steel, erected upon strictest scientific principles as to tension, resisting power, and other technicalities, carry huge trams, with thousands of passengers, annually in safety above the stream. The Lower Steel Arch Bridge is a sample of these wonderful works of man.
