Mohawk Valley Gateway Overlook pedestrian bridge, Pedestrian bridge in Amsterdam, New York.
The Mohawk Valley Gateway Overlook spans 511 feet across the Mohawk River, connecting the Southside neighborhoods with downtown Amsterdam and Riverlink Park.
New York State Lieutenant Governor Kathleen Hochul inaugurated this infrastructure project in August 2016, following a decade of planning and construction efforts.
Twelve designated stopping points along the bridge present information about Native Americans, early settlers, immigrants, and the development of canals and railroads.
Located at 1 Bridge Street, this public crossing remains open 24 hours daily and includes directional markers to both the Erie Canalway Trail and northern riverside areas.
The structure features the Wheel of Life, a 12-foot glass mosaic created using Venetian techniques, inspired by a similar design at Manhattan's Waldorf Astoria Hotel.
