Built in 1931, the Macy Street Undercrossing (Department Bridge No. 53C-131) carries vehicular traffic under the Union Station tracks. Its main span is a reinforced-concrete, earth-filled, elliptical 68-foot-long arch. The bridge is 56 feet wide, with one span 30 feet long. It allows for four lanes of traffic to pass underneath the arch span. It features an arched-window rail, with rough concrete texture. Its design is very similar to the Vignes Street Bridge and retaining walls at Union Station. The Macy Street Undercrossing was designed by Merrill Butler.
