View of the north end of the 30th Street Bridge [Herr's Island Bridge] showing a bronze tablet containing information about the bridge including a construction date of 1938-1939. Herr's Island was renamed Washington's Landing when the City of Pittsburgh removed industrial waste left by a century of stockyards, meat-packing plants, warehouses, and oil refineries making the island habitable.
