Which Norfolk bridge is this?

[NW Mailing List]

Yeah Harry, between the negative number and the visible semaphore, I 
think the guys have well debunked
the 1950's date. Thanks for sharing that Berkley was still USCG country 
in '65, as Granddaddy did all his
shopping at NOB, as we lived near the east end of the Virginian at that 
time. My brothers' paper routes were down by
the "Giant Open Air" at Wards Corner & mine was (compass) east along 
Little Creek Rd at the Krispy Kreme.
