Tokyo, Japan's Bridges: Shimizu (横十間川 清水橋) Bridge across the Yoko Jikkengawa (2)

March 2012 (35.692 Degrees, 139.820 Degrees) Shimizu Bridge
A view from underneath the Shimizu Bridge. Construction started in 1927, about 85 years ago. The columns are strangely discolored and eroded but the girders look in pretty good shape. I found a website that talks about this bridge as well as many of the other bridges across what they call the Jitsuken River. However, the Google Translator is very difficult to understand.
