Northeast Pennsylvania Fall Views - 2011 - Part III

These are from a driving tour on Sunday, October 23, 2011, around the Wilkes-Barre, PA area.
I tried to photograph a variety of scenes to give a feel for the area (old and new) at this time.
The final 5 photos were taken on Sunday morning, 10/30/11, after our pre-Halloween snow.

The Holy Assumption of St. Mary Byzantine Catholic Church on N. Main St., Wilkes-Barre,
at the very north end of town between Elm and Chestnut Streets.

Three views of the new 8th Street Bridge linking Jenkins Township and Wyoming, PA. The day before these photos
were taken, one remaining span of the half-demolished 111 year-old former bridge fell into the river all by itself.
