While reading about the closing of "The Belle Chase Car Wash"
TIL that the Highway 11 bridge was originally a toll bridge.
"The bridge opened on February 18, 1928, as the first permanent crossing of Lake Pontchartrain.
The bridge was originally a toll structure, costing $1.25 for a motor vehicle with one driver plus ten cents for each additional passenger."
