Pitt Street Bridge: 972 Pitt St, Mt Pleasant, South Carolina, USA

This wooden pier, which extends towards Cove Inlet, was built in 1898 as a trolley bridge allowing passage to and from.

The Pitt Street Bridge closed when the Ben Sawyer Bridge opened in 1945. After being converted into a fishing pier, most of the old bridge burned, though a section is still extant.
