An old train bridge that's been stuck up in the air since the 1970's. There are two sides, the side that leads to the drawbridge part, and the flat side. The bridge is also fairly covered in graffiti.

Just an all-around cool location. You can walk out across the railroad ties to the part of the bridge that's stuck in the air.

The bridge carried the Providence, Bristol, and Warren train line. It was built to connect the East Side and downtown Providence with East Providence. Also, the tracks that the bridge carries run through the abandoned East Side Railroad tunnel nearby.

As of right now, there aren't any future plans. Residents of the city seem to look at the bridge as a sort of landmark, and haven't expressed any desire of seeing it go anywhere.
