| Description | A view of the south lift-tower from the moveable span catwalk while the bridge is in the down position. The Cleveland, Ohio skyline is visible on the right horizon. Built in 1940, the Columbus Road Vertical Lift Bridge stands at a historic Cuyahoga River crossing in the city of Cleveland, Ohio. The existing vertical lift span, designed by the prominent Cleveland engineering firm of Wilbur Watson and Associates, is representative of the designs for moveable bridges of the vertical lift type being built during the 1940s. |
