The city of the town historian Frank Helfrich this week for volunteering his time to preserve town history.

Frank, this photo show is for you.

The Ringwood Bridge 2.0 is a structure in Menlo Park that provides west to east connectivity for bicyclists and pedestrians. Notice, I wrote a 2.0 at the end of that. The old bridge was replaced this year with one that is easier to bike and walk.

Look at the photos that show the life and times of the old Ringwood Bridge.  Then, watch the video that shows you what it's like to ride on the new bridge.
