Endless Bridge
"One of the signature features of the new Guthrie, the cantilevered lobby
known as the "Endless Bridge" is an observatory for the Mississippi River falls
and landscape. Jean Nouvel's primary goal was to create an exciting and
inspiring place for people to gather at the river. The windows on the bridge
walls are all set on predetermined sightlines. Framed and "forced perspective"
views highlight and give focus to many nearby historical landmarks. Stretching
more than half a block (178 feet) from the building face, the 30-foot-wide
Endless Bridge towers over West River Parkway. One of the longest occupied
cantilevers in the world, the Guthrie's Endless Bridge is quite an engineering feat."
