Description
A side view of the Historical Fremont Drawbridge.
The Fremont Bridge is a double-leaf bascule bridge that connects Fremont and 4th Avenues N. 30 feet over Seattle's Fremont Cut between Fremont and Queen Anne. The Fremont Bridge was opened on Friday June 15, 1917 at a cost of $410,000.
The Fremont Bridge, located west of the George Washington (Aurora) Bridge, crosses the Lake Washington Ship Canal and links the Fremont with the Queen Anne neighborhood. Opened on July 4, 1917, it is the only blue and orange bridge operated by SDOT. The Fremont Bridge's current color was chosen by a 1985 poll taken among Fremont residents and by the Fremont Arts Council.
The Fremont Bridge celebrated over 566,000 openings and counting as of January 2006. Just 30 feet above the water, the bridge rises for marine traffic on average of about 35 times a day, making it as one of the busiest bascule bridges in the world.

Well done, Terrie. I have crossed the bridge and waited for boats to pass through the drawbridge many times, but have never viewed it from this angle. It is really a marvelous old bridge.
