I took more pictures of the 10th Street Bridge when I was in Great Falls last week. These pictures are taken from the north side of the bridge and one can see the rehabilition project in progress. The remodeled portion of the bridge is seen in the following photos.

I took two pictures of this bridge in the summer of 2005. My wife, a friend, and I was going to Billings to pick up another friend who was going to be a summer missionary in Canada. We went through Great Falls and stopped at the bridge. The bridge is in the process of being remodeled and it will soon be in operation again! Only, this time it will be a walking bridge. Anyway, the picture of the 10th Street Bridge is taken from the south side of the river. The current remodeled portion of the bridge is on the north side.
