[edit] Height

A quick web search puts the bridge height at somewhere between 120 feet per http://www.sandiegohistory.org/journal/96winter/allen.htm siteing Engineering News, 73 (May 13, 1915) and 135 feet per a historical postcard on http://theoldentimes.com/cabrillo_bridge.html. If you know which is correct and have a good source, please add it to the article. Thanks. 76.245.120.121 02:32, 29 October 2007 (UTC) Sandy

A book about the fair says the height was 110 feet above the surface of the pond. Don't know what the depth of the pond was nor what the current highway did to the surface of the canyon. -- SEWilco (talk) 05:18, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
