Liberty Bridge at Falls Park on the Reedy, Curved pedestrian suspension bridge at Falls Park on the Reedy, Greenville, United States
The Liberty Bridge spans 380 feet across the Reedy River with a curved concrete deck supported by two 90-foot steel masts and suspension cables.
The bridge stands above the location where Richard Pearis established the first European trading post in 1768, marking the beginning of Greenville's development.
The Liberty Bridge name recognizes W. Frank Hipp, founder of Liberty Corporation, and his family's contributions to the Greenville community.
The structure extends 12 feet wide with an east-to-west incline of 3 percent, allowing visitors to view the 28-foot Reedy River Falls below.
Three ring cables measuring 80 millimeters in diameter run beneath the concrete deck, creating an effect where the bridge appears to float above the landscape.

Bridges have connected shores, valleys and communities for centuries. This collection presents significant bridge structures from different periods and regions. From medieval stone arches to modern steel constructions, these works demonstrate the evolution of engineering. The 16th-century Rialto Bridge in Venice spans the Grand Canal with a single stone arch. The Golden Gate in San Francisco extends 2.7 kilometers, connecting the city with northern California. In Singapore, the Helix Bridge forms a pedestrian connection across Marina Bay with its double spiral structure. These constructions serve practical functions in urban transport while defining the skylines of their cities. They document technical solutions to geographic obstacles and show different approaches to bridge building across the centuries.
