The Murray Morgan bridge, named for the famed Puget Sound historian, now sits condemned awaiting action by one of several finger pointing entities disavowing responsibility for its sudden demise. This drawbridge is the gateway to/from the Tacoma Tideflats and its downtown, crossing the Thea Foss Waterway.

Terrific capture, Russ. Ditto Todd comments about the low pov and reflections. Nice use of diagonals. I'm surprised to see they allow boat houses underneath the bridge. Too bad to hear the bridge is being condemned. Did the bridge at least make it to the end of it's projected 'life expectancy' as predicted by the architects/engineers who built it?
