The maroon and gold Washington Avenue Bridge spans the Mississippi River, linking the University of Minnesota’s East and West Bank campuses. Seen from below, the bridge’s bold steel trusses frame the calm river and limestone bluffs, while the university’s West Bank buildings rise in the background.

The structure’s sleek transparency contrasts with the limestone layers of the bluff below, emphasizing the union between natural geology and contemporary academic architecture that defines much of the university’s riverfront setting.
