Pedestrian Crossing, 1962 - Workmen erect a temporary foot bridge over Cattaraugus Creek in this photograph from August 1962. It was located downstream from the construction site of Gowanda’s new Main Street bridge and ran from behind Don Campbell’s Super Duper to North Water Street behind the Armes Drug Store. This was the only direct link in the business district until the new bridge was completed the following year.    (Photo from the Robert Peggs Collection, Gowanda Area Historical Society.)
