Main and State Street Bridges over Barge Canal in Pittsford, NY

Main: (Archived Bridge Hunter; Bridge Hunter; no Historic Bridges; Satellite)
State: (no Bridge Hunter; no Historic Bridges; Satellite)


The Main Street pony truss bridge was built in 1985. It is nice that NYDOT honored the historic significance of the canal, and built a truss bridge in the second half of the 20th century. They maintain an older truss bridge (Mitchell Road) a little east of Pittsford.

Tour Blend posted three photos with the comment: "The draining of the canal seems to be slow this year. Holiday preparations are underway and still the canal remains full, and beautiful.— at Schoen Place, Pittsford."
