Abandoned Drawbridge being removed in Boot Key Harbor in Marathon, Florida. In 2000, there were 3 drawbridges left in the Florida Keys, this one, Jewfish Creek, and Snake Creek. Jewfish Creek was replaced with a fixed concrete bridge in 2008 and this one was put out of commission in 2009 after the city, county, and state didn't want to pay the repair after it was broken due to a malfunction so it was stuck in the up position indefinitely until it was removed some years after. You can see the broken crossing gates on the ground and the empty bridge tenders house which is locked. I would've loved to go inside and see what it felt like! I usually do train videos but I couldn't pass this one up!
