My daily walk on the Stone Arch Bridge
The view as I approach the river (the bridge archways you see here are not for the Stone Arch Bridge, but the Third Avenue Bridge, the next one upriver). You actually see the beginning of the Stone Arch Bridge just after the road, running away to the right (at the mid-point of the photo on the right hand side):
Sign for Mill Ruins Park, which runs along the banks of the river:
Stepping onto the bridge. The Army Corps of Engineers' Lock-and-Dam is on the left
Rounding the curve portion of the bridge
Looking downriver to the site of the fallen 35W bridge
Straight portion of the bridge
The plaque at the midpoint of the bridge, where I turn and go back on my morning walk
Looking upriver toward the dam and the Third Avenue Bridge:
Heading back now toward shore, looking upriver toward the lock used by barges going down the Mississippi River.
Another view of the open lock
Looking towards the shore from the bridge on my walk back. The rounded columns are old flour mill storage, now part of the Mill City Museum. The bridge-to-nowhere cantilevered out from the blue building past that is part of the Guthrie Theater.
Another view of the back of the Mill City Museum, with condos to the right. Note the ragged wall, where the original mill blew up in a spectacular explosion during the heydey of flour milling. The ruins were incorporated into the museum.
