| Description | Shows the southern elevation of the Wade Park Avenue Bridge in Cleveland, Ohio in 1965. Designed to carry Wade Park Avenue across a ravine and over Liberty Boulevard, the Wade Park Avenue Bridge is one of the most significant of a series of bridges in a Richardsonian manner by a leading Cleveland architect of the period, Charles F. Schweinfurth. It exemplifies the engineering skills and architectural taste of the last decade of the 19th century in this area. Construction first began for the bridge in 1899. |
