Masonry Stone Arch

Last week on the 30th I inspected a stone masonry arch in Providence RI. The Arch is located near Roger Williams Zoo and spans over Polo Lake. The arch was in 1889 and spans 30 feet over the lake.

Being so old it is no surprise at the amount of efflorescence, stalactites and incrustation build up. The inspection was a special member since the bridge is posted for 15 tons and was easily inspected with our boat.
