ca. 1950. Daylight view of the second Narrows Bridge with Mt. Rainier in the background shortly after it opened in late 1950. (print filed File 101-3) The bridge took ten years to complete after the collapse of the first Narrows Bridge in November of 1940. The war and lack of construction materials contributed to the delay.
