Lexington Pedestrian Bridge
Owner: City of St. Paul
Architect: City of St. Paul Public Works
Location: St. Paul, MN
Size: 210 ft bridge, 120 ft bridge, 500 ft bituminous
Value: $2,023,000
The Lexington Pedestrian Bridge project consisted of two new pedestrian bridges; a 210 ft steel span over a railway, and a 120 ft steel span over the roadway. The steel used is specifically designed to rust, which both reduces maintenance and adds a great earthy color. Given the large weight of these bridges, the concrete abutments had to be significant.
