This simple stone arch bridge is the southern crossing Frink Creek.
Carrying the Great Western Trail, the bridge was originally built in approximately 1900 to carry the Chicago Great Western Railway. During this time, the CGW replaced most timber trestles with stone arch culvert spans.
Since being built, the bridge has had little modifications. The bridge is heavily obscured by trees and brush.
Overall, the bridge remains in fair condition, with some deterioration noted throughout the bridge. It appears that the stones are coming loose in several places, typical of CGW arches.
The author has ranked this bridge as being locally significant, due to the common design of the bridge and small span length.
The photo above is an overview. The bridge can be accessed from 42nd Street.
