Vancouver Land Bridge
The Vancouver Land Bridge is a significant cultural and historical site in Vancouver, WA, designed by architect Johnpaul Jones with consultation from Maya Lin. This 40-foot wide earth-covered pedestrian bridge reconnects historic Fort Vancouver with the Columbia River, highlighting the area's legacy as a meeting point for European and Native American cultures.
Featuring elements such as the Welcome Gate by artist Lillian Pitt and ethnobotanical walkways showcasing indigenous plants, the Land Bridge serves as a tribute to the region's rich history and its role as a crossroads for diverse communities. Dedicated in 2008, the site emphasizes the importance of the landscape and the stories of the Indigenous peoples who have lived in harmony with it for centuries.
