Names
Walked the same path to work that i've biked for years, but this time i noticed the bridge's plaque. On the southeast abutment of US 23 over Huron is the bridge's dedication plaque. It is 100' away from the path through Gallup Park and there is no path closer to it - yes, placed in a non-prominent position, away from all pedestrian traffic, only to be seen if someone on 23 happens to blow a tire by that spot, walk over to the side of the bridge to take a leak, and happen to look up at the plaque on the abutment. Some 1000 years from now a future archaeologist might uncover this plaque and place our road comissioner's name among the likes of MAGRIPPA, but for now, park-goers will not know those names.
