The only reason this bridge existed was to access the Pennsy station on the north side and to connect to other railroads.

Rare Photo! Taken from above where the sport's arena was and looking northeast. Pennsylvania R.R. approach to it's Maumee river bridge. In the lower left Harrison Marina was located later. The Railroad track that branches off to the right serviced the Maumee Rolling Mill (Later Toledo Rail & Light then Toledo Edison ACME plant. Upper right corner is a small peek at Front St. c. 1900.
Peter Hess: According to the 1905 insurance map the rolling mill was owned by Republic Steel.
The Republic Steel Rolling Mill was on Front Street and at the intersection of Droege, Foundry, Licking, Steel and Carbon. To the north of the Republic plant was Maumee Malleable later purchased by National Malleable Co. The Acme plant wasn't constructed until later. Plot plan coming to you.
Site of Maumee Rolling Mill which was established in 1884 and was acquired in 1900 by Republic Iron & Steel.
In 1917 the steel mill was demolished and a coal fired power plant was constructed by the Acme Power Company to provide electricity to the city and its rapidly expanding industries. Following the consolidation of Toledo's four major electric companies in 1921 under Toledo Edison the plant became the major power source for Northwestern Ohio. After upgrades in 1949 and 1951 the plant accounted for 288 megawatts of Toledo Edison's total generating capacity of 320 megawatts.
