Hard to imagine some day it will likely have to be torn down. If the current and future proprietors do a good job of maintaining it, it could last for several generations or maybe longer. I probably won't be around to keep you posted on this, unless the owners do a poor job maintaining it and it falls down in the next 30 or 35 years. Although now that I think about it, we did have a great-great grandfather on our Dad's side who lived to be 105. Maybe I'll be able to keep an eye on things long enough to do a 50 year follow-up photo. If not, maybe our new grandson "Budder" will be able to keep you posted if the bridge ends up lasting 100 years or so. I'll put a bug in his ear when he's old enough to know what that means. In the meantime....
