Most likely don't remember, but that was a wooden bridge up until about 55 years ago. The clearance at that time was far higher.

It was substantially reduce when they went "el cheap" and replaced it with a giant culvert pipe.

I wonder how many home owners in the basin at that time had to go out and get a new boat because the clearance was reduced?

Probably not many because it was so long ago and there were a lot more smaller boats in those days.
