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.

| Robert Corby updated PITTSFORD'S STATE STREET BRIDGE IN 1900 This view is looking northwest toward Schoen's Alley. On the left is part of the Wadhams & Whitlock Lumberyard. Beyond the bridge is a knitting mill. In the distance can be seen two houses on Schoen Place that today house offices and the Red Barn real estate business. This bridge was replaced in 1912 when the Erie Canal was widened and second time. Robert Corby shared |
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."
