Deer Creek bridge resides along what was then the Pacific Highway 99 along Jackson Street (east side, heading north). The current Highway 99 bypasses this bridge but this piece of history remains and the bridge is in good condition considering its age.
There are holes on the top end parts of the concrete railings at each end of the bridge where there must have been some iron lampposts at one time. I've tried hunting down an old picture of this bridge and if/when I find it I'll post it here.
