New Bedford - Fairhaven Bridge
Crossing The Acushnet River

From
Fairhaven to New Bedford

Isn't that a pretty idyllic picture?

Please don't fall asleep while looking at it. (Boring).
It is an image from an old postcard.  The roadbed is not paved.

The grassy area in the foreground is the current location of the parking lot of Seaport Inn, in 2010.
