The Bicentennial Celebration |
The “City of Bridges” Master Plan, including history, designs, renderings and installed costs for the lighting of the city’s 18 bridges spanning 3.4 miles of the Cuyahoga River, was created by RDLD for the City and Bicentennial Commission. During the master planning process, RDLD performed mock-up lighting demonstrations on several of the bridges. Public and private input from the mock-up was incorporated into the final plan.
