When it was built, the 444' swing span was the longest swing span in the nation.

Barbara Donovan posted 13 photos with the comment: "Photos of Pearl Landing and Pearl, Illinois that I colorized with Gemini"

Wanda Robinson: If that is the depot at Pearl, why does it have Glen Echo on sign? My dad worked at the depot in Pearl for many years.

Barbara Donovan: Wanda Robinson didn't even noticed that but it's the Gemini photo app that makes changes when it's colorized. I always try to post the original under the colored one. I'll see if I can correct that. Thanks!
