Schenley Bridge

Local nameSchenley Bridge
LocationPittsburgh

The Schenley Bridge is a steel three-hinged deck arch bridge spanning Junction Hollow in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. It carries Schenley Drive between Oakland on the west and the main part of Schenley Park on the east, connecting Schenley Plaza, the Carnegie Institute, and the Frick Fine Arts Building with Frew Street, Flagstaff Hill, and Phipps Conservatory. The bridge spans 620 feet and arches 120 feet above the hollow.

The bridge was completed in 1897 as part of the main entrance to Schenley Park. It replaced a temporary structure by the same name dating from 1890, a year after the park opened. Construction of the Schenley Bridge was roughly contemporaneous with that of the nearby Panther Hollow Bridge, and the two bridges are very similar in design.
