A major landmark in Houghton is the Portage Lake Lift Bridge that connects Houghton and Hancock. I had been expecting something big and scary like the Mackinac Bridge but this thing was quite different: short, solid and downright cuddly compared to any mega-bridge. That being said, it's also the widest and heaviest double-decked vertical-lift bridge in the world.
I remember we had plans to cross it, on foot or by car…. Not sure that we did either. Don’t think so.
