A century-old Tacoma bridge, at one time a candidate for demolition, began a new life Friday, once again connecting downtown Tacoma with the Tideflats.
Traffic cones and barriers that had guarded the approaches to Tacoma's century-old Murray Morgan Bridge for nearly six years were removed a few minutes after noon Friday as the bridge reopened to traffic.
A rebuilt and newly painted Murray Morgan Bridge received its official blessing Friday. About 500 people gathered at the western of the bridge for a rededication and centennial celebration, held 100 years to the day after the bridge first opened to traffic in 1913.
Proctor District residents should have emergency workers a little closer for nighttime and early-morning medical emergencies come Friday, when the neighborhood’s 24-hour staffing is set to be restored from 12 hours daily.
