Today we went boating with my step-brother, Roger, and his wife, Donna. They had moved their boat to Fisherman's Terminal and our goal was boating on Lake Washington. To get there we had to go under all the bridges spanning the Lake Washington Ship Canal, the easternmost of which is the Montlake Bridge. It was completed in 1925 and was designed by Carl F. Gould, one of the original architects of the University of Washington. The bridge and its control towers were designed to harmonize with the university's Collegiate Gothic style, and while they are handsome when seen from street level they are even more so when viewed from the water.
