About Lattice Bridge
The crossing was constructed in 1887 by the Wrought Iron Bridge Company of Canton, Ohio, with the abutments built by William J. Fox, the commissioner of highways, and Phil D. Franklin, the proprietor of the Red gristmill on Caneadea Creek. 2
The closed Lattice Bridge is slated to be restored into a pedestrian-only crossing. 1
