Perhaps this historic bridge could be disassembled and stored until later reuse?
A MUST for our family's (early 1970's) Sunday afternoon drive was to drive down Fairground St., over the bridge over the train switching station.
My young stepson (age 7) rode his bicycle often with his father. Approaching the Fairground Street bridge, there was a sign posted, "Danger" and underneath, "Bridge." Interpreting this as a dangerous bridge, he approached it like a young James Bond!He was disappointed.
Well this is especially historic and impressive for a bridge still existing in Mississippi.

This was the most recent development I could find on this bridge. Looks like the plan is to move it to a park.
