The concrete Forge Bridge allowing Beaver Street to pass over the Delaware Canal was constructed in 1928, replacing the previous wooden bridge. On the left of the photograph is a one-story building where an iron forge stood; hence the name of the bridge. The tall white factory beyond the bridge is the Grundy Worsted Mill. The tan stone building behind the bridge is the factory that was built to manufacture wallpaper and later became Landreth Seed Packing and Williamson Radio Co. This section of the canal has since been filled in and the bridge was removed in 1960.
