John W. Weeks Footbridge
Bring a little Cambridge and Boston home.
Square Magnet · 4 × 4 inches
A glance at the fridge can take in more than the week's list. John W. Weeks Footbridge brings a pedestrian route into the Charles view, giving the two banks a crossing at the scale of a walk.
John W. Weeks Footbridge was constructed in 1926 and dedicated in 1927. Designed by McKim, Mead & White, it was sold by Harvard to the Commonwealth at dedication. The pedestrian crossing brings a smaller scale to the Charles, connecting its two banks through a route made for walking.
The footbridge connects the Harvard riverfront with a public pedestrian route, keeping walking as part of the basin's history alongside road traffic and rowing. Let it share the fridge with appointments and drawings, keeping the view in the middle of a well-used corner of home.
