"City of Mississauga (former) Commissioner Angus E. McDonald: an aloha and farewell"

I felt so badly for you when you were looking up Evans Avenue and said "I was unsuccessful in the other direction"... it was about a quarter mile directly behind you down the hill! :) It was the first concrete truss bridge in Canada, so I'm told, and only the second in North America. It's now the oldest.

Unfortunately, there's a much more substantial bridge, the Angus L. Macdonald bridge, across Halifax Harbour. Could be confusing to rename it with just the middle initial different. :)

@loneprimate Hi there. If you felt sorry for me in this video, you should've seen what I left out! I was driving north, south, east, west even for a while mistaking a huge bridge for this one (I had zero clues what it looked like).

Found it when I accidentally got on the QEW cut-off. Thing about it was, once I got first sight of that bridge?.. I KNEW it was the one I was looking for.

What a wonderful, beautiful PERFECT bridge! Bridges make me grateful for the geeks and skills of Public Works.

@MISSISSAUGAWATCH I know just how you feel. I went looking for it in the summer of 1998, based just on the hint of a bridge, in a MapArt GTA map book, connecting two seemingly disconnected roads with the same name, Sherway Drive, on opposite sides of Etobicoke Creek. Experience had shown me such gaps often yield abandoned bridges. I drove up on it just the same way you did, and had pretty much the same reaction. Watching you discover it in real time was an absolute joy.
