Pair of grass-topped land bridges over Memorial Drive completed in 2023 — restored prairie plantings, twin tunnels, and an open-sky viewing platform that reconnects the north and south halves of Memorial Park.

Creator notes
What works here
Stand on the southern bridge facing north at golden hour — prairie grass front-lit, tunnels framing distant trails. Bridge surface is open year-round; the tunnels echo, no flash photography during evening visitor traffic.

Best time
Golden hour through blue hour
Lighting
Prairie plants glow at sunset; tunnels are dramatic backlit at the same hour.
