Located in the Roscoe Village neighborhood of Chicago, this large girder bridge crosses West Addison Street and North Lincoln Avenue, as well as North Ravenswood Avenue.
Built in 1959 as a major upgrade project, the bridge features a five deck girder spans, set onto steel and concrete substructures. The bridge runs at a significant skew, and crosses a 6-point intersection.
It is likely that this bridge replaced a large through girder bridge from the late 1890s. Metra has plans to eventually rehabilitate this bridge and replace 10 others in the area. Work is expected to begin in 2023 and finish in 2027.
Overall, the bridge appears to be in good condition, with minimal deterioration.
The author has ranked this bridge as being minimally significant, due to the common design and newer age.
