Notes
Blackfriars Bridge, a reinforced wrought-iron bowstring bridge, was constructed in 1875. It spans the north branch of the Thames River, connecting the north end of Ridout Street with Blackfriars Street. Blackfriars Bridge is believed to be the oldest surviving wrought-iron bridge in North America still used for vehicular traffic.

The London Room photograph index card suggests that this photograph may have been taken ca. 1930.
