Please comment on the articles when you see I have left out a bit of history, forgotten a name or when your memory of a circumstance conflicts with mine. (My mother says her stories have improved now that more and more of the folks who could contradict her have died off.) Your information helps to make this a wonderful archive and may end up in book form.

Down by the Riverside
I wonder how long it’ll take before the Bill Emerson Memorial Bridge stops being the “new” bridge and becomes just The Bridge?
I was going to take the night off for the holiday, but ran across these photos from July 28, 2002. It was dusk, both bridges were still standing, barges were running up and down the river and folks were gathering on the waterfront.

Great photos as always, Ken!
Nov. 1972 sometime early in the morning. I was trying to get to the Purple Crackle on the Ill. side when I was
hit by a car. Lucky for me I lived. I knew I should have
driven instead of taken that darn bycycle.
