BP Pedestrian Bridge
Chicago, IL 60603
The BP Pedestrian Bridge in Chicago, IL, designed by Frank Gehry, serves as a vital link between Millennium Park and Maggie Daley Park, offering accessibility for all visitors, including those with disabilities. Clad in brushed stainless-steel panels, the bridge not only provides stunning views of the Chicago skyline and surrounding parks but also acts as an acoustic barrier from the adjacent Columbus Drive traffic noise.
Constructed entirely through private donations under the Millennium Park Foundation, the 925-foot-long BP Pedestrian Bridge stands as a testament to innovative design and functionality, seamlessly connecting different areas of Grant Park while enhancing the overall visitor experience with its unique architectural presence.
