Oak Cliff Viaduct



3 views of the Oak Cliff Viaduct (now Houston Street Viaduct) in its early days. All views looking toward downtown Dallas from Oak Cliff. It's hard to imagine now the park-like setting underneath the bridge. Perhaps this dream of taming the Trinity River bottom is as old as the viaduct itself. I have found these postcards listed with dates as early as 1912 (the year the bridge opened) and as late as 1920.
