One exceptional feature of Acadia National Park is the carriage road system. This 45-mile system traverses many of the best landscape viewing areas in Acadia, and is considered to be the finest example of a crushed stone carriage roadway in America. It was conceived, planned and financed by the philantropically-minded John D. Rockefeller Jr., originally as a private roadway closed to automobiles, for private use. Over 60 years ago 11,000 acres, including the carriage roadway, was donated by Rockefeller and the Rockefeller family as part of current-day Acadia National Park.
This bridge is one of 16, each unique, constructed of locally-found material, and integrated into the natural landscape, according to Rockefeller's plan.

The Stone Arch Bridge has been a fixture in Minneapolis since 1883. Originally it was a railroad bridge, but is now used as a pedestrian and bicycle bridge across the Mississippi River.
Behind the bridge, you can see the Pillsbury sign on top of what use to be the Pillsbury A Mill building.

This stone arch bridge at Hillsborough was my second stop, its called the Beard's Brook Bridge and its truly in the middle of nowhere. You have to take a bone jarring gravel road to get here and I still haven't found any directions for this place online. I guessed the locations of the bridge by charting out the locations where the roads cross the stream on Google maps and then trying my luck. The Bridge actually has a larger span to the right but the stream there doesn't have many rocks and didn't had an interesting enough scenery.
This span was a different story, It had all my favorite things, cascading water , unspoiled nature, a bridge and interesting architecture. I snapped couple of more shots but this is the one I liked the most so far. I love these mortar-less stone bridges, unlike many modern structures they don't seem to stick out in nature and roughly 200 years after they were built they still manage to do the job. I would love to return here in the fall if I am still here.

The Stone Arch Bridge spanning the Mississippi River in downtown Minneapolis was built by Railroad tycoon James J. Hill for his Great Northern Railway. The bridge was designed by Charles C. Smith. It was completed in 1883. The bridge is a Historic Civil Engineering Landmark and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1971 as part of the St. Anthony Falls Historic District. The bridge is now used as a pedestrian and bicycle way.
Everyone and their brother who has visited the historic mill district in Minneapolis has taken this photo. Sometimes you just have to make it your own! Taken from under the beautiful stone arch bridge and looking into the exposed walls and waterpower features of the 19th century flour mills. This piece of important Minneapolis history was long buried under mud and gravel has now been excavated and turned into a fascinating park.

Take Me To The River. Foghat. Anyone? No?
Ein erster Lichtstrahl durchbricht das uralte Mauerwerk einer jahrhundertealten Steinbogenbrücke. Die aufgehende Sonne lässt das zerklüftete Flussbett in warmem Licht erstrahlen, während der Himmel von dramatischen Wolken gezeichnet ist. Ein stiller Morgen in Südfrankreich – wo Geschichte in der Natur erwacht.
