Los Angeles County, California Bridges: 26th Street Bridge across the Los Angeles River

August 1999 (34.0144 Degrees, -118.2223 Degrees) Los Angeles River Bridges

This photo was taken at a bend in the Los Angeles River looking upstream at the 26th Street Bridge (53C0868), which is a three span deck arch that was built in 1958. I must have been standing on the Soto Street Bridge (that we'll study tomorrow) when I took this picture. Just beyond the 26th Street Bridge are two railroad bridges and then the Washington Blvd. Bridge that we studied yesterday. This is a heavily industrialized area south of downtown at the border of the City of Vernon. In the distance we can see the Los Angeles City Hall (behind a transmission tower) and the Verdugo Mountains.
