| Abstract: | The article focuses on the Henry Street Bridge in downtown Indianapolis, a curvilinear, S-shaped prestressed concrete structure scheduled to open in spring 2027. Designed by WSP in the U.S., the bridge prioritizes multimodal transportation with 60% of its deck dedicated to pedestrians and cyclists, aiming to reconnect historically isolated neighborhoods and support the White River Innovation District redevelopment. Architectural features include prominent concrete rings symbolizing a civic gateway, while engineering solutions address site constraints, long-term resilience, and maintenance. The project involved extensive collaboration with city agencies and community engagement, positioning the bridge as both a transportation asset and a landmark reflecting urban renewal goals.
