Paseo Bridge, Suspension bridge in Kansas City, Missouri.
The Paseo Bridge was a four-lane suspension structure spanning the Missouri River with a main span of 616 feet, connecting Kansas City to its northern districts through major interstate highways.
Constructed in 1954, the bridge served as a vital transportation link for over five decades before being replaced by the Christopher S. Bond Bridge in 2010 and subsequently demolished.
The bridge became a recognizable landmark in Kansas City's skyline and was documented by the Historic American Engineering Record as an important example of mid-20th-century suspension bridge engineering.
During its operational years, the bridge handled approximately 95,000 vehicles daily and initially operated as a toll bridge charging ten cents per crossing to help finance construction and maintenance costs.
The Paseo Bridge was one of the longest self-anchored suspension spans in the world at the time of its opening, representing a significant engineering achievement in the Midwest region.
