Kirkland's most unexpectedly entertaining sight is a low pedestrian overpass on NE 6th Street that has been claiming the roofs of delivery trucks and overheight vehicles for decades. The structure has a low clearance that drivers regularly underestimate, and the results — scraped, crumpled, and occasionally completely sheared vehicle roofs — have made it something of a local legend.
The bridge itself is an entirely unremarkable piece of infrastructure. Its appeal is purely circumstantial: the combination of low clearance, a nearby turn that impedes visibility, and an apparently irresistible temptation for trucks of all sizes. Locals call it the "truck-eating bridge" and the collision tally continues to accumulate.
Worth a visit only if you happen to be passing nearby — it is best appreciated as a footnote to Kirkland's character, the kind of mundane curiosity that gets more interesting when you know the backstory.
