Description
Grand Rapids Michigan has a beautiful river running through the downtown area. This is a mixed media image of the Gillette Bridge that runs east from the Gerald Ford Museum to the Amway complex. This bridge was renovated for pedestrian use. The piers appear to have been repaired, and the superstructure appears to have had little deterioration in the first place. The historic integrity of the superstructure, thus has remained intact. The deck was however heavily modified. A fancy bridge, cement, and stone walkway was applied to the deck, and the railings are not heavy concrete with pole railings. The walkway looks nice. In 1988 the bridge was rededicated as the Gillett Bridge in honor of Richard M. Gillett, former president of the Old Kent Bank.
