  • Y-480215.  The second Morrison Bridge, built in 1905, was a swing bridge that opened by rotating on a central pinion. On February 15, 1948, the sternwheeler Jean, a Willamette River paddlewheel steamboat, was moving down the river through the Morrison Bridge. Before the Jean could clear the bridge it swung to close and knocked the wheel house off the boat. The bridge was replaced with the present Morrison bridge in 1958.

  • This scene along route 99 shows Oregon’s principal north-south interstate highway before divided highways bypassed or replaced them. Almost any trip through Western Oregon would take you through covered bridges, or on ferries across the larger rivers. There used to be hundreds of covered bridges in Oregon, and now only about fifty remain. This is the Quines Creek Covered Bridge over Cow Creek near Azalea, in Douglas County, Oregon. It exhibits damage over the portal resulting from a high-loaded logging truck. The bridge was built in 1913 and collapsed in 1958. Highway 99 was replaced here by I-5 and the covered bridge location is where the exit ramp feeds Quines Creek Road and crosses Cow Creek. The photographer noted that he took this picture in the mist of dawn before sunrise, August 10, 1949.
