San Francisco has its cable cars．Seattle has its Space Needle．And，Longview has its squirrel（麻雀） bridge．The bridge is now a local landmark．
The Nutty Narrows Bridge was built in 1963by a local builder，Amos Peters，to give squirrels a way to cross the busy road without being hurt by passing cars．
Before the bridge was built，squirrels had to avoid traffic to and from the Park Plaza office building．Many times，Peters and other workers saw squirrels being run over．
One day Peters round a dead squirrel，and that day's coffee break discussion turned into squirrel safety．The group of businessmen came up the squirrel bridge idea and named the bridge"Nutty Narrows．"
Amos Peters and Bill Hutch started to build the bridge．It cost 1，000．
It didn't take long before reports of squirrels using the bridge stared．Squirrels were even seen guiding their young and teaching them the ropes．The story was picked up by the media，and Nutty Narrows became known in newspapers all over the world．
In 1983，after 20years of use，Peters took down the worn-out bridge．Repairs were made and crosspieces were replaced．The sign was repainted and in July 1983，hundreds of animal lovers attended the completion ceremony of the new bridge．
Peters died in 1984．and a ten-foot wooden squirrel sculpture（雕像） was placed near the bridge in memory of its builder and his devotion（奉献） to the project．（For more pictures，see http://cn．bing．com/）
