Description
Photographic postcard of the damage to the "Riogoku bridge, Tokyo." View of the bridge from one side looking across to the other side. The road of the bridge and support beams are to the right side of the photo. People are walking across the bridge near the side. The walkway that ran along the side of the bridge has fallen apart. The railing of the walkway is still standing part of the way and then is gone. The concrete that made up the walkway is in pieces with large sections missing. The water and support beams are visible in the holes where the walkway used to be.
