So yea, we got this bridge in Cincinnati... it's pretty neato. I work on the Banks, and as I despise paying for parking, I cross this bridge and park in Kentucky, then walk it back to downtown to my job. What to say about this bridge... it's a bridge. It sounds a bit funny, as the bridge isn't concrete but... More

I was hoping to see the suspension bridge and had to cross it several times. It is very cool! Lots of people were walking across it. I'm glad I got to see it.

Great looking classic bridge, it actually was the test design for the Brooklyn Bridge in NYC and it's heritage is seen at first glance. Easy access to walk across to Kentucky and the view of the riverbank attractions are outstanding, bring your camera.

This is a beautiful functional bridge that connects KY to OH. The design is unique and you can walk it with no problems.

The bridge is a great free attraction, we stayed in Covington, Ky and walked across the bridge, a great example for architecture fans. Views of Cincinnatti are fabulous from the bridge and Covington side. Take a camera for an iconic photo of the city!

Walked from the Covington, KY side across the Ohio River, to the Cincinnati side. Nice stroll. Nice photo ops of the bridge and the skyline. We crossed the bridge on our way to the Underground Railroad Freedom Center, which is at the end of the bridge on the Cincinnati side.

My kids loved walking across the bridge into another state. Very safe and worthy of pictures on both sides. Talk to the kids about the history of the bridge first...

Stayed in Covington and walked across the bridge to the Reds games, is a very interesting bridge with lots of little unique things about it. Is best seen at night when all of the lights are on, on the Covington side there are murals on the walls along the river depicting the history of the river at that spot and... More

Growing up in a small town outside of Cincinnati, we were always excited to go downtown to see the bridge. I remember we used to love driving across it and humming along with the tone of the tires rolling over the open surface. They called it a singing road. Now, living in SoFlo, everytime I go home to visit, I... More
