The Memorials by Night

Arlington Memorial Bridge and Avenue serve as a symbolic link between the North and South, connecting the iconic Lincoln Memorial to Arlington National Cemetery. This grand architectural structure not only honors the sacrifices of military personnel but also showcases a neoclassical design that reflects national strength and unity.

Designed by the renowned firm McKim Mead and White, the bridge features various artistic elements such as sculptures and bas reliefs that celebrate American history. Following a comprehensive rehabilitation project from 2018 to 2020, it continues to function as a ceremonial entrance to the nation’s capital, enhancing the experience for visitors on foot or by bicycle.
