The 740 River Drive Apartment and Condo building looks like it's sitting on the Ford Parkway Bridge, which crosses the Mississippi river, connecting St. Paul and Minneapolis. Of course, it isn't but it sits on the banks of the Mississippi and has a fantastic view of both the bridge and the river.
The bridge is designed with beautiful arches.
Before crossing the bridge on the west side, a road runs down to the locks and dams where there is a Visitor Center.
It's great fun either to walk or bike across the bridge when everything along the river is lush and green.

That is a nice looking bridge. Oh to live beside the Mississippi river.
ReplyDeleteIt's a beautifully designed bridge Kate, love the framing in that last shot, sitting on that bench would give you a great view I suspect!
ReplyDeleteI'm going to share this post with my friend who is visiting from your fair city.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos of that huge bridge, Great Kate!
ReplyDeleteHappy 4th of July - our 235th birthday of America!
C U soon for coffee and treats!
I was immediately struck by those many slender arches. They make the bridge look so elegant.
ReplyDeleteYes, I'd agree. Different points, fabulous views.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful bridge with that clerestory of almost Moorish arches.
ReplyDeleteAwesome bridge? Can you walk across?
ReplyDeleteThe bridge is handsome. If I lived in a high rise, I's want a view like the people who live on the Mississippi River side of the building.
ReplyDeleteThis is really a huge bridge...
ReplyDeleteLove seeing this bridge over the mighty Mississippi... My husband is from Natchez, MS and the bridge there is stunning at night with all its lights. Great to see the crossings of this wonderful river.
ReplyDeleteBises,
