Bridges and viaducts: Franklin-Orleans Bridge; Gladstone Park Viaduct over Kennedy Expressway; Grand Ave. Bridge; Halsted St. Viaduct; N. Halsted St. Bridge (over River); S. Halsted St. Bridge (over Canal). Many of the 35 mm negatives document damage and deterioration on Chicago's bridges, viaducts and underpasses that need repair though some frames provide a general view of the bridges at the time they were taken.

The Equitable Building is the next high-rise to the right. The Mandel Building (Mandel-Lear Building) formerly at 211 East North Water Street (demolished) is in front of the Equitable Building, and other storage and warehouse facilities are in the right foreground.
