The sun rising g over Wascana Lake, seen through some of the Art Deco balusters that line the Albert Memorial Bridge in Regina. The bridge is a heritage property, and the balusters were refurbished when the bridge was rebuilt about ten years ago. However the signs of weathering are evident over the past decade or so.

Balusters on a portion of the Albert Memorial Bridge in Regina. The bridge was built in the 1930s as a make-work project. The balusters have a ceramic glaze, displaying Art Deco designs and colours. About ten years ago the balusters were removed and renewed while the bridge was being rebuilt. The east side is the most accessible for photography and the golden hour light shows off the balusters to the best effect.

The Albert Memorial Bridge was built in the 1930s as a make-work project during the Great Depression. The bridge features Art Deco balusters on both sides. The balusters are classed as municipal heritage property. I took this image shortly after the balusters were renewed as part of a bridge rehabilitation project.

The art deco balusters on the Albert Memorial Bridge in Regina were refreshed and revitalized when the bridge was refurbished, with fresh pain and glaze applied. the bridge was originally built in the 1930s as a Depression make-work project.
