The morning Astorian. [volume] (Astoria, Oregon) 1899-1930, 1909-05-07

Last year the question Of building
a county bridge across the Necani-
cum at Seaside, connecting East
Seaside with West Seaside, at a point
about two hundred yards north OF
the the present bridge, was brought
up in the county court and bids ad-
yertised for and received, but for
some reason no contract was entered
into. The rapid growth Of West Sea-
side necessitates the building of the
additional bridge The present bridge
il at the west end Of Bridge street,
which runs from the depot to the
bridge. Thousands of summer visi-
tors pass over this bridge every sum-
mer and complaint has been made
that they, their wives and children
are compelled to ruin the gauntlet Of
large number Of men in front Of
the four saloons which they are com
PEELED to pass, whereas, the building
Of the new bridge win obviate this
difficulty and give the visitors a good
road direct from Court street to the
beach. Dan Moore, president Of the
promotion committee Of West Sea-
side is working to secure the bridge
and ii is the expressed wish Of all
owners of property on the west side
that the county court will consider
the necessity Of bnilding the bridge
and have it completed this summer
1t is thought the bridge can be com
pleted in one month. Certainly Sea
side is entitled to some recognition
las it contributes largely to the take:
OF the county.
While it may not be possible tc
secure the buildin OF this bridge the
matter has been presented to the
icounty court asking that bridge bt
built on the beach where the Gear.
hart Beach intersects the Seaside
beach at the mouth of the Necani
cum. This is considered the mos
important bridge as ii will give
fine driveway from Fort Stevens tC
Seaside, whereas as now, it is impos
sble to cross the mouth of the Ne
canicum. 1t is thought the count!
court will act favorable on the ques
Ition. The only reason the bridge wa
not built last year, was report tha
lit could not be maintained agains
the tides, but prominent engineer
say that it can be done with safety.
