text: This is a remnant of the OLD Hi Carpenter Bridge, as may be seen in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8w5Fjouvma8 .  Google Maps gives the connecting road on the island as part of George Street, but I doubt it would've been named that until the main span of the Hi Carpenter was closed.  I don't even understand why that connecting road, which seemed to have nothing on it, was built on that island to join the bridge at that point, UNLESS the road on Middle Island was formerly or projected to have been a significant route along the Ohio River north of that point, or there had been a significant business or residential establishment on the island.
