Bridge to Nowhere
Once part of the tracks that consisted of the early Blue/Pink Line (then called Logan Square/Garfield Park/Douglas Line), this bridge is one of few remnants left of these old elevated lines. It now serves as a signal bridge for the freight and suburban commuter trains that travel under it. It is not that hard to picture 1890's style brown and green wooden el cars passing over the bridge to nowhere.
