Hope Memorial Bridge, Art Deco truss bridge in Cleveland, United States.
The steel and concrete structure extends nearly a mile across the Cuyahoga River, connecting Lorain Avenue with Carnegie Avenue in downtown Cleveland.
Following a public petition in 1902 and an 8 million dollar bond approval in 1927, the bridge opened in 1932 as the Lorain-Carnegie Bridge.
Four stone pylons display eight Guardians of Traffic sculptures, designed by Frank Walker and carved by Henry Hering in a combination of Art Deco style.
The bridge stands 93 feet above the water, allowing vessels to pass underneath, and includes dedicated paths for pedestrians and cyclists since 2012.
The structure received its current name in 1983 to honor Harry Hope, father of entertainer Bob Hope and a stonemason who worked on the bridge.
