Description

The Detroit-Superior High-Level Bridge was constructed by the King Bridge Company between 1912 and 1917 to link the east and west sides of downtown Cleveland, Ohio. Prior to the start of construction, the City of Cleveland, Ohio, and Cuyahoga County approved a 120 foot wide right-of-way along the proposed 5,600 foot path of the bridge from the intersection of Detroit Avenue, N.W. and 25th Street on the west side of the River, to the intersection of Superior Avenue, N.W. and 9th Avenue, N.W., on the east side of the River. Contains one photograph album containing 62 images from the Flats area of downtown Cleveland, Ohio, including businesses, residences, and streets of those areas that were located in the proposed path of the Detroit-Superior Bridge.
