Michigan Central Arch Bridge

Description:

Due to the increasing weight and train traffic the Michigan Central RR Bridge was built to replace the Michigan Central Cantilever Bridge. Its construction was delayed by WWI, but it was completed in 1925 by Michigan Central's engineer H. Isben and still exists today.
