The Helen Fogwill Porter Footbridge

Not far from this spot there used to be an old and well-used bridge that cars could cross. When that space was taken for industrial purposes by the City, the local residents convinced the City to build this sturdy but small footbridge.

Despite appearances, it is a lovely quiet spot that many residents walk through every day. I like the view (from the left side) of the dry-dock where, right now, three ships are out of the water being repaired or rebuilt.
