Lacey V. Murrow Memorial Bridge, Floating road bridge on Lake Washington, Seattle, United States

The Lacey V. Murrow Memorial Bridge spans Lake Washington with concrete pontoons connecting Seattle to Mercer Island through Interstate 90.

The original structure opened in 1940 as the Lake Washington Floating Bridge before being renamed in 1967 to honor the first Washington State Highway director.

The bridge represents a major engineering advancement in the Pacific Northwest, demonstrating the region's commitment to infrastructure development during the mid-20th century.

The bridge carries eastbound traffic across Lake Washington with multiple lanes, serving approximately 60,000 vehicles each day between Seattle and its eastern suburbs.

Following its reconstruction in 1993, the bridge maintains its position as the second-longest floating bridge structure in the world at 6,620 feet.
