| Cadillac Fairview owner and operator of the Toronto Eaton Centre, back in June 2017 had plans to replace a 40 year old pedestrian bridge across Queen St., West that will connect the mall to both Hudson’s Bay and Saks Fifth Avenue flagship locations. The bridge being assembled adjacent to the shopping centre on James St., will be lifted into place once complete. ___ |

| I returned six months later to see the new bridge in place and work compled. The pedestrian bridge comprises 200 etched bronze panels and 355 slumped glass panels which give the bridge a rectangular look on one end and gently rounded on the other. |
...mighty neat.
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful covered bridge that leads from one building to another. I like the associated metal and glass walkways
ReplyDeleteI haven't been down there to see it, Andy! This cloudy weather is taking the thrill out of walking around town for me.
ReplyDeleteThat is very attractive. It has an artistic to flare.
ReplyDeleteThey did the same with a pedestrian bridge linking a mall and a Bay here, but this one looks better.
ReplyDeleteFine looking bridge of interesting design. Good you went back to photograph the finished product.
ReplyDeleteA very nice looking bridge with a creative design to it. I like it!
ReplyDeleteUna original pasarela.
ReplyDeleteUn abrazo.
That looks very nice. And it's much preferable to crossing the street in traffic.
ReplyDeleteThey've been very hard at work, it's good to see how it's made from the inside.
ReplyDeleteIt looks a lovely foot bridge and nice to see how it progress into another shape.
ReplyDeleteI found it interesting the way the folks in Minneapolis built bridges from building to building downtown... This one is neat!
ReplyDeleteNice design. In your first photo it looks like the bridge was made by a sewing machine.
ReplyDeleteWow that looks a nice way to pass the street without traffic!
ReplyDeleteI like the look of the new bridge Andy, I'm guessing it's completely different from the old bridge 😉
ReplyDeleteNeat looking structure! Have you been to downtown Calgary, they have a huge system of walkways between the downtown buildings. Miles and miles..
