Veterans' Bridge (Pueblo)

Veterans' Bridge is a $1.5 million pedestrian footbridge and monument honoring all veterans (usually those who have ties to Pueblo, Colorado) regardless of branch of military service or whether they served in peace time or war.

The bridge — located on the Historic Arkansas Riverwalk of Pueblo — was formally opened and dedicated to the public on Veterans Day, November 11, 2010.

[1] Upon completion of construction in October 2010, eight granite plaques were placed on top of two large pyramids that are located on the walking area of the bridge.

According to HARP Authority members, a rush for several hundred names came immediately following the dedication.

5,000 supporters filled the streets of downtown Pueblo to help welcome this new monument.
