The above pictures show a beautiful old bridge that was the beginning of my hike down the Southside Trail. The bridge has its own set of graffiti art, and its past is unknown to all passerby. It once served as the sturdy bridge for a very important railroad circling Atlanta: the beltline corridor. With the plans in place to establish public transit on the Beltline, I wondered if historic bridges such as this one would need to be replaced to fit a walking trail along with light rail.
