Chelsea Street Bridge

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Chelsea Street Bridge is a vertical-lift bridge that carries Chelsea Street between East Boston, Massachusetts, and Chelsea, Massachusetts, over the Chelsea Creek. It reopened to traffic on May 12, 2012, after a $125.3M construction project replaced the previous drawbridge. The span is 450 feet with a vertical clearance of 175 feet. There are two lanes and a sidewalk in each direction.[1]

Mystic River bridge (former)

Another bridge referred to by the same name was replaced by the Tobin Bridge, formerly connecting Chelsea Street in Charlestown, Massachusetts (another neighborhood of Boston) with the city of Chelsea.
