Take a second look. What's different about this photo? Answer: It's the bridge crossing Riley Creek on East College Avenue. But, it's not the current bridge. It's the one-lane earlier bridge, removed in the late 1980s. Paul Diller took the photo one winter. Other than the bridge, not much more has changed from the scene. (Jim Diller collection)
