( 26) Built in 1916 and since dwarfed by the far taller George Washington Memorial
Bridge (colloquially known as the Aurora Bridge), the distinctive orange-and-blue Fre-
mont Bridge became necessary after the construction of the Lake Washington Ship
Canal linked Lake Union with Puget Sound. It is the busiest drawbridge in the US,
opening over 30 times a day to let boat traffic pass through.
