I finally had to trespass to get a side view of the bridge. The fellow who patiently noticed my trespassing has been in the area for thirty years and remembers the bridge only as being fixed, so the rebuild took place before that. The Coast Guard had clearly noted the bridge as movable.
Though the street and satellite views and actually driving over the bridge give the impression of a very short swing span, that middle span is a fixed steel girder span.
