Built in 1906 as part of the Bayshore Cut-Off, the Quint St. bridge is finally being replaced. Work has been underway for months but the removal of the bridge and placing of the fill will be happening a week from today. A bus bridge will be in place from Bayshore to 22nd and 4th and King stations.

Here are some views form Western Railroad Museum's collection posted on historypin.org

Looking southwest at the site of 14th Ave Station, which later became Newcomb Station, and which is currently being considered for the site of a new station to be called Oakdale. When the government opened a supply depot near here a cut was made through this parcel for a lead to serve the new switching zone.
