John W. Weeks Footbridge
Bring a little Cambridge and Boston home.
Rocks Glass · Clear · 10 oz
Set down a drink and leave a little time for conversation. 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. A quiet evening, a book and a glass of water leave room for the view as part of a simple moment at home.
