Go to maps.google.com and enter "2 Cent Bridge, Waterville Maine" in the search box. There are a bunch of photos posted. You can't use street view to go across the bridge, but you can get close to one end.

I like posts like this because there are so many sights not only here in the U. S., but around the world, that most of have never heard of, much less seen. There is a great story about this little bridge, on Google, that helps put some history behind the bridge. Cut and paste the link below and you will be at one end of the bridge and are able to "drive" up the street, down the street, cross the river and/or go anywhere else you want to go from here.
Have fun,
Mike

Yep, that's the "one end" of the bridge I suggested you could get to. Can't cross the 2 cent bridge though, but there are photos posted from folks going across.

I just received a local cover honoring the Two Penny Bridge in Waterville Maine and put out by the Maine Philatelic Society in1978. I did some reading and have learned a bit of history that was not on the cover. Do we have a member who lives close by or has been across the bridge.? If so and there is a recent picture of the bridge ... please share.
