Looks like the W 2nd Street bridge in South Boston.

Thanks for playing, folks! This photo shows the building of the Saratoga Street Bridge in 1907. The bridge was replaced in 2013.

I didn't see any good clues to start narrowing things down.

This old photo of train tracks in Boston really shows how far the city has come. The tracks are such an important part of the city, it’s hard to visualize when they were new. This photo is proof!
