Amazing post @laexplained ・・・ As I was just reading about how the new 6th Street Bridge is closed indefinitely... here are some shots of it around the time it opened (the first time). Pic 1: opening day - June 16, 1933 (photo from the UCLA Archives). Pic 2: Milton “Buddy” Coleman performs the ribbon cutting on the same day (photo from the UCLA Archives). Pic 3: the bridge under construction in 1931 (photo from the USC Archives). . . . . . . . . #6thstreetbridgela #6thstreetbridge #losangeles #dtla #dtlaartsdistrict #boyleheights #fanfare #lanoire #laexplained #cd14 Pic 4: looking down an unpaved LA River towards the bridge around the time of its completion (photo from the Los Angeles City Archives).
