International Bridge 1910's - El Paso, Texas

The image shows the International Bridge connecting El Paso with Mexico in the 1910s. Streetscars crossed regularly, bringing people to and from Ciudad Juarez. The house to the right is the U.S. Custom's Inspection. In those days, going back and forth between the two cities at the Rio Grande was easy.
