Photograph of a view of the Colorado Street Bridge in Pasadena looking northeast, 1930-1940. The concrete arch bridge is at center and rises high above a valley below. Pairs of streetlights can be seen along the top of the bridge, and a road can be seen passing through the large archways that support the bridge. The floor of the valley is covered with a wide variety of trees, and more trees can be seen on a ridge in the distance. A tall mountain range is visible in the background.
