Fort Street–Pleasant Street and Norfolk & Western Railroad Viaduct
Fort Street–Pleasant Street and Norfolk & Western Railroad Viaduct, Railway bridge in Boynton neighborhood, Detroit, United States.
The Fort Street-Pleasant Street viaduct spans 2,800 feet in length and includes an 80-foot roadway crossing Pleasant Street and Norfolk Southern Railway tracks.
Built in 1928 by the Wayne County Road Commission, this bridge marked the first initiative in Detroit's grade separation program during industrial growth.
The transformation of Fort Street from a social center to an industrial corridor reflects Detroit's evolution into a manufacturing powerhouse.
The structure accommodates six lanes of vehicular traffic and includes a designated left-turn lane following the 2011 road modifications.
Original decorative elements, including octagonal lamp posts, remain intact despite the replacement of urn-shaped balusters with concrete panels.
