Notes:

  • 1967: Dismantled and supposedly replaced with a bridge that was referred to as a "swinging bridge." However, it appears several components of the original bridge were reassembled with a new deck. The bridge was finally demolished in 2000 and replaced with the bridge presently (2020s) known as the Marko-Feingold-Steg.
