View of the Pedestrian Harvard Bridge that is modeled similarly to the adjacent vehicular bridges in the vicinity.

From the bridge holding N Harvard Square (Street of the Harvard Stadium) to JFK Street, the Cambridge side of the structure, the adjacent bridge sits on Western Ave, and connects Cambridge on the North to Allston on the South of the river bank.

It could be said that the streets delineating the Charles river, do separate the cities of Cambridge & Boston.

On the North, Memorial Drive is likely subsidized by the city of Cambridge, and likewise, on the South Side, Storrow Drive does accompany Mass Ave on the journey from Boston to Western Suburbs in the region.

From that N/S line of the Harvard Bridge, after the adjacent 2 pair, another similar construction exists. The two other bridges seem to have been concrete and masonry (rocks) built. They are both very similar arches in structure, color, materials, and overall design. These two next bridges, connect Cambridge to the Allston overpass on Highway I-90, and a bit eastern from there, through the River Street which connects Boston to Central Cambridge.

The arch type of structure is then replaced by the Thru-Truss on Brookline Ave, also commonly known as BU Bridge.

Following East, we encounter the, what I believe is a concrete and steel arch type structure, known as the MIT Bridge. Ahead, we have the Longfellow Bridge, which is definely built of Pre-Cast Steel, though there is some welding on site, it does hold concrete and pavement, and the Red Line Train, along with bikes and pedestrian lanes, mirrored on both sides of the bridge, as it is nealy throughout its span.

The Longfellow Bridge does have 11 arches, forming together what is the main arch of the bridge.
It is built of 4 sections (I believe the Longfellow is a lot more than 4, could be up to 12?) Got to check Design Plans...

Anyway...

Then, I don't know, after that, there's like the Green Line Bridge, the Signature, then the moveable North Washington.

What do you think?

HMU!
