✦ Synopsis

This bridge, having passed into the hands of the city, and the corporation which built it having been dissolved, it seems proper that so important a municipal improvement should have its history recorded.

For many years past, efforts have been made by those especially interested, to have the Schuylkill bridged at a point near the mouth of the Wissahiekon; and old maps of that region show the projected lines for such a bridge, extending fromRidge Avenue immediately south of Wissahickon Creek, upon the eastern side, crossing to a point in line with City .Avenue on the western side; which avenue, beginning at a point a few hundred feet from the river, forms the boundary between Philadelphia and Montgomery counties.
