Scope and Content
Photograph of the aftermath of the Second Narrows Bridge being hit by a ship. The span girder is tipped into water on the left side of the photograph and the other girder is broken and in upright position. There is a large ship in the front with letters "CALMAR LINE" written on the side along with several tug boats. Soon after being built in 1925, the Second Narrows Bridge was hit countless times by ships at the bascule portion installed at the south end of the bridge (unfortunately installed in a shallow water area to avoid building expensive towers and a lift span). Each time it was hit the bridge was out of commission until it was repaired. The Second Narrows Bridge runs over Burrard Inlet and connects Vancouver to North Vancouver.
