The Bridge: A Travel Writing … Archive
This weekend, I found a collection of photos in storage from a journal I tried to start while studying at the University of Baltimore: The Bridge: A Journal for Travel Writing. The journal only ran three issues in 2005-2006–the fourth issue never ran–publishing essays, short fiction, and poetry. I hope to find the proofs of these over the course of the semester and make them available here sometime next year…
The photo I took for Issue One (left) depicts the 1922 steel bridge on Paper Mill Rd. in Baltimore County, MD, spanning over the Gunpowder Falls and the reservoir (once part of my daily commute); the bridge is still extant, but has since been replaced by a new bridge that sits alongside the original and that allows two-way traffic.
