I can't remember what I was doing every July 4th, but in 1976, the Bicentennial year, I was selling beer upstream at Riverfront Stadium home of the Big Red Machine. On the NBC news that evening they showed a shot of the crowd as part of what America was doing that day. That evening I worked at the Newport Yacht Club run by Dewey Peluso. A woman got in a fight and a Newport cop threw her over his shoulder and carried her out kicking and screaming.
The Western Hills Viaduct was built in the early 1930's at the same time as the famous train station Union Terminal. Both are great examples of Art Deco.
