	An Historical Perspective of Kansas City’s Twelfth Street Trafficway Viaduct, 1911-1915
		Designed by the renowned Kansas City firm of J. Waddell and John Lyle Harrington, and built by the Graff Construction Co, Seattle, the unusual structure displays a prominent bowstring arch span and 45 girder spans masked as arches at the upper deck.
		Waddell and Harrington's plans for the new viaduct, adopted by the city in April 1912, called for a 2,265 foot structure with a maximum height of 110 feet at the bluff, and 45 upper deck girder spans of 33 to 56 feet.
		Waddell, a native of Canada, began his education at Trinity College School in his home town of Port Hope, Ontario, and subsequently, because of John's ill-health, his parents sent the 16-year old Waddell to China on the tea clipper N. Palmer for a 10 month voyage.

	Stillwater Bridge - Historic Significance
		Waddell was a consulting engineer based in Kansas City, Missouri, who, during the next 40 years, would become one of the best-known bridge engineers in the United States.
		Waddell proposed to build a vertical lift bridge consisting of a simple truss span 260 feet long so constructed and supported as to allow of being raised vertically to a height of 140 feet above the surface of the canal.
		In 1907, Waddell formed a partnership with John Lyle Harrington (1868-1942), a skilled civil and mechanical engineer who was largely responsible for reworking Waddell's invention into a rational, well-integrated design.

		Waddell discussed the development and varieties of bascule design in his comprehensive two-volume work Bridge Engineering, published in 1916.
		Waddell noted that "more bascules of the trunnion type have been built than of the other types." Trunnions could be installed in a variety of soil conditions, whereas the movement of a rolling lift required a bedrock foundation.
		Waddell's trunnion design for the new Seventh Street Bridge was apparently completed by the summer of 1931.

	About \| Save Our Bridge (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		The engineering firm of Waddell and Harrington of Kansas City, Missouri was selected to design a replacement for the City Waterway Bridge.
		After initially considering a bascule bridge design, Waddell and Harrington, well known for previous vertical lift span designs, opted for a vertical lift to replace the original swing span bridge.
		The advantages cited were the increased height above the water, the faster and more reliable operation of the moving section, the wider horizontal clearance, and the ability of the lift span design to carry a 16-inch municipal water main to supply water to the industrial tide flats.
