The bridge over San Lorenzo Creek on S. First Street. The bridge was built in 1924, and according to Cal-Trans records, the highway around this bridge was the last stretch of 101 that was unpaved. Addional information from the King City Rustler newspaper indicates that is was finally paved in 1930.
