Lift bridge, north west view


Canal bridges in the Chesapeake City area – circa 1907 – 1949: The Lift Bridge

Seated here on the porch of the Harriot Hotel (now the Bayard House) is John Breza, who helped to build the lift bridge he’s looking at. This is a North West view so you can just make out Schaefer’s store and restaurant in the distance. This porch has been renovated and is now enclosed. The photo is circa 1940.
