Market Street Bridge, Wilkes-Barre

Its concrete arches and decorative approach features connect practical river crossing with the civic architecture of the Wyoming Valley.

The black-and-white photograph is an archival view, rather than a current traffic scene. Appreciate the bridge from designated public sidewalks and riverfront paths, following current construction and traffic signs. Do not enter the roadway or climb onto ornamental features. Check pedestrian-route continuity before planning a crossing, and allow space for other users at the approaches.
