Cedar Street Bridge

Scott Glickenhaus, a local entrepreneur and world traveler, sees an opportunity to create a unique public gathering place. His idea, inspired by the Ponte Vecchio, is to create a marketplace-on-a-bridge with a distinctive Northwest flair. After some dispute about the lease agreement for use of the derelict bridge, Glickenhaus begins construction of a new public market. Designed by award-winning architect Jonathan Stoumen, the bridge features a unique passive solar design. Multiple support pilings are driven into Sand Creek and, once the bridge platform is completed, the structure itself is built from massive tamarack timbers selectively harvested in Idaho and Montana by BRANDY CHICKS, crafted off-site and lifted into place by large cranes.
