Couple on Stone Arch Bridge, Minneapolis, December 2021

A couple walks across the Stone Arch Bridge in Minneapolis in December 2021. Constructed in 1883 for the Great Northern Railway, the bridge spans the Mississippi River and is one of the city's oldest railroad bridges. After ceasing rail operations, it was repurposed in 1999 as a pedestrian and bicycle bridge. The structure offers views of St. Anthony Falls and the downtown Minneapolis skyline, serving as a significant link to the city's industrial past and a popular public space today.
