The photos belonged to my father. He had them at the time of the construction and when the bridge was finished. I do not know who took them. I put them on the computer a long time ago. I believe I scanned them. Some belonged to my sister so I don't have those originals in my possession. -- Therese Klotz Marshall, October 2016
