Description

It had once carried the railroad tracks route between Philadelphia and New York via Bristol until 1911. The bridge was replaced and the original sides were retained, but do not bear weight. Old Route 13 currently passes over the bridge. The red brick structure is the former Grand Theater, which opened in 1928 to replace the much smaller Forest Theater at that location. In 2003, when this photograph was taken, Arnold’s Office Furniture Store was there, later becoming Discover Learn & Grow Early Learning Center.
