Jones Bridge


In Atlanta, there are many state parks along the Chattahoochee River. One is called Jones Bridge. Jones bridge was used between 1904 and 1922 as a toll bridge to cross the river. In the early 1920's no cost state funded bridges took over and made Jones Bridge obsolete. In about 1940 half the span disappeared (probably for the value of the metal). The skeleton of the leftover bridge is still standing. I think it's pretty cool looking. This is a nice park to take a walk.

Can we visit this park again? It got dark to fast last time we went there.
