There are lots of places along the Mississippi to take photos of this iconic bridge in Minneapolis. But I loved this spot found by going down the stairs adjacent to the bridge in Father Hennepin Bluffs Park. You can see the Guthrie Theater through the arch on the left, and a bit of the city on the right.
