We will make a special effort to include the Sellwood Bridge on this tour for its birthday. It's a leap-day baby-- we'll take the opportunity to celebrate its opening back on February 29th, 2016! Outside our visit to the Sellwood Bridge, the tour will go around, across, under, and inside several other unique and storied spans that shape our lives in Portland. Strolling along the waterfront, we'll plan to cross several bridges, pausing at the Morrison Bridge to meet the bridge operator, to see the view from the control tower, and perhaps to head downstairs into the piers to stand beside a 36' tall gear and massive counterweight.
