Dated April 24, 1917, the piers, north and south, are up, but not the teeter-totter wings for the bascule, and the bridge would consequently not be ready for the Lake Washington Ship Canal’s July 4, 1917 inaugural opening. Again – as noted in the caption above this one – note that the burning tower and chimney on the left and the metal warehouse on the right, both appear in the earlier photo above this one. This photo then was our primary clue for locating the photo above it.
