Did you know the Main Street Bridge (a.k.a. the John T. Alsop Jr. Bridge) was the first vertical lift bridge built entirely in Florida when it opened in 1941?
Today, it’s one of the most iconic views in #DTJax, lighting up our skyline in that signature blue glow. Whether you`re snapping pics from the Southbank or cruising through the river, this view is always a show stopper.
We love this late-night shot, captured by @904stormchaser!
