  • This is the BNSF's Grassy Point Drawbridge. It is a swivel-span railroad bridge that handles traffic daily from BNSF's Rice's Point yard to its 28th street facility as well as Soo Line/CP transfers from Stinson yard to Soo Lines Duluth yard.
  • See Arrowhead Fishing Pier below. That is the location of the Old Arrowhead Bridge from Billings Park to West Duluth.
  • This is not a drawbridge. It is a swinging bring which rotates 90 degrees on its central support point in mid-channel.
  • bridge, that is.
  • Signs on either end of the span have the word Drawbridge on them.
