Benjamin Franklin Bridge

The Benjamin Franklin Bridge was completed in 1926. It was the world’s largest suspension bridge at the time. It connects Philadelphia, PA and Camden, NJ. While there is a walkway across, it is now closed. A train line also crosses the bridge. Of course, automobile traffic is plentiful.

I searched for a plaque and found none although the above web site states there is one with the following engraved: Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, state of New Jersey, city of Philadelphia jointly constructed this bridge 1919-1926. I suspect that it is on the walkway.
