| | Within twelve hours the river below the Falls was jammed with ice of such enormous proportions that the ice pressure pushing against the bridge abutments and the hinge supports of the arch caused severe structural damage. | | | He was the same man who had planned and built the first Welland Canal making it possible for shipping to circumvent the Falls at Niagara. | | | This bridge continues in use to this day. |
