Corporation Street Bridge, Steel and glass footbridge in Manchester city centre, England.
Corporation Street Bridge features a twisted tubular structure connecting the Marks and Spencer building to the Manchester Arndale shopping center across Corporation Street.
The current bridge, designed by architect Stephen Hodder and opened in 1999, replaced the previous structure damaged during the 1996 IRA bombing of Manchester.
The bridge design received multiple recognitions, including the Royal Institute of British Architects Award and the British Constructional Steelwork Association Award in 2000.
The footbridge underwent a substantial renovation in 2011, costing £730,000, which included replacing floor panels and repairing damaged window sections.
The structure takes the form of a hyperboloid and stands directly above the location where the 1996 explosion occurred.
