What I Saw - July 17, 2014
Apparently, the Northwest River Trail Services Building at Columbia River Park is now . . .
open (?)
With convenient second floor access
A rooftop observation deck
An area for open-air exercise
A crawl space
And a first-floor walking area
What better place for a romantic evening?

Fire caused by overloaded power strip
A mid-morning fire at 140 N. Third Street that caused $100,000 in damage was sparked by an overloaded power strip. Four residents of the apartment building were displaced.
The building was condemned due to fire damage.
Columbia Fire Chief Scott Ryno talks to News 8's Meredith Jorgensen about the fire.
Chiques Creek Pedestrian Bridge dedicated after delay
The pedestrian bridge across Chiques Creek near Furnace Road in Marietta was dedicated this morning in a ribbon-cutting ceremony.
Even though a vehicle accident near the site delayed the opening of the ceremony . . .
the dedication proceeded nonetheless . . .
and the ribbon was cut by County Commissioner Scott Martin.
The bridge, part of a $650,000 project, was finished June 25 and will be a key link in the 14.2-mile Northwest River Trail from Columbia Borough to Conoy Township.
Some other views of the area . . .
