Could cross post this in multiple threads but here should do nicely.
This was in the Museum of Fine Art in downtown Little Rock.

This is quite an engineering marvel, the Junction Bridge across the Arkansas River downtown Little Rock.
To gain clearance for tall ships the whole bridge rises instead of a traditional draw bridge type arrangement.
Originally it was a railroad swing bridge but later converted to lift style for road use before being decommissioned to a foot bridge in the 2000’s.
And you can walk across it which is something else!

Beautiful! Looks a bit like ‘De Hef’ in Rotterdam.
