Completed · Infrastructure · Moveable Vehicular Bridge · Temperate · 2014

A community-built replacement bridge over the Duwamish River in one of Seattle's most underserved neighbourhoods, notable for its participatory design process and use of an accelerated bridge construction technique that minimised river disruption. Built after the original was demolished for safety, the project was community-financed and delivered under budget.
