Notes:

  • 2018: Major rehabilitation project completed. Patrick S. O'Donnell observes: "Total deck replacement. The tower legs appear they were all reinforced/cladded in more concrete as were the headers/struts. The above ground anchorage blocks at one end appear new, or just with another layer of concrete."
