WSP | Parsons Brinckerhoff & RFR - George C. King Bridge ( St. Patrick’s Bridge) - CCE Awards 2015

See their project page with more info here: http://bit.ly/AwardWSP The George C. King Bridge (formerly St. Patrick’s Bridge) spans the Bow River in Calgary’s East Village, linking St. Patrick’s Island with mixed-use community development to the south and popular pedestrian paths and communities along the river to the north. It is a three-span, 182 m long network arch structure that resembles stones skipping across water. Given its slender and architectural uniqueness, the project team had to overcome several design and construction challenges, including the Calgary flood of June 2013.
