Un magnifique pont, lequel j'ai traversé à pied, en bus, ainsi qu'avec mon bon vieux CHRYSLER 69 ..

Right in the middle of the Depression. Could've bought property in Ambleside/Dundarave for the equivalent of today's nickels. What was I thinking?

Its been known way back .

It would certainly be a lot more "complicated" to build today as the north end is Indian Reservation. To build the beautiful bridge that stands today the government expropriated the land.

Correction ... First Nation's reservation .
