Indian River Bridge: Postcards from Yesteryear.
Wed, 22 Aug 2007 - Indian River, Titusville FL, near Max Brewer Causeway.
Past generations of Floridians had great pride in the infrastructure of their communities.

Structures like this old bridge were vital components for the economic growth of the region. Such investments are required, if a community wishes to prosper.
We’ve seen decades of neglect in matters of infrastructure. Schools are overcrowded and portable buildings are permanent fixtures on their landscape. Our roadways and bridges are aging, and they are being utilized beyond the designed capacity.
If we had more pride invested in the gritty concrete and rusty steel that undergirds our society, would we be willing, once again, to invest tax-dollars into building for the future?
