Passenger use climbed with trolley lines running along both sides of the river by century's end and a developing tourism scene lakeside. The "Windsor" shown here was built in 1894 and powered by a steam engine pulling it back and forth across the 500-foot river's mouth attached to a chain line. A trip lasted about seven minutes. The ship carried vehicles and had 200 life preservers on board. Due to increasing use of the Stutson Street bridge upriver, the "Windsor" ferry finally was shut down in 1927.
