Lowry Avenue Bridge Under Construction

Here’s a non-HDR image earlier in the day. The bridge is rather futuristic considering the neighborhoods it connects (North Minneapolis to Northeast Minneapolis). To be honest it’s quite jarring next to the industrial areas and brick buildings.

  1. Actually if you read my comments I said the bridge is jarring not the neighborhoods. Not everyone in the neighborhood welcomes the work of art as one of the local residents talked my ear off about it. It’s a very nice bridge and I don’t mind photographing it at all. Although In these times a $104 million bridge that carries 16,000 cars per day is going to be a bit divisive. For comparison sake the 35W bridge cost $234 million and carries at least 140,000 cars per day.
