The Pedestrian Bridge, nicknamed the "Amber Bridge" and "Bouncy Bridge, and certified by the city as the "Pedestrian Bridge and Troll Habitat",[1] is a footbridge on the Reed College campus in southeast Portland, Oregon, in the United States. The bridge was designed by ZGF Architects LLP and opened in 2008.[2]

Description and history
The bridge in 2016

The 300-foot (91 m) concrete and steel bridge was designed by ZGF Architects LLP and features lighting on the bridge deck and railings.[3][4] The handrails have solid state LED lighting. According to the lighting design company Luma, the bridge's amber color was selected to differentiate it from the nearby Blue Bridge.[4] Hoffman Construction served as the contractor.[5]

The bridge has been part of the course for the Reed 5K Odyssey, a race to benefit local elementary schools.[6] In March 2013, during spring break, the bridge and other Reed College sites served as filming locations for the television series Grimm.[7] It was closed temporarily in October 2014 after a tree fell on it because of strong winds and rain.[8] The Pedestrian Bridge helped influence the design of Washington County's Augusta Lane Bicycle and Pedestrian Bridge.[9]

Name

The bridge has been nicknamed the "Amber Bridge"[10][7] and "Bouncy Bridge".[3][6][11] It is called the "Pedestrian Bridge and Troll Habitat" on the official city certificate. The source of this listing is unknown.[12]

    Pike Place Market

    Re: Main Arcade, North Arcade: "I'd say they are all right in that range where an article could meet the threshold to be kept, but it would require good work to establish notability. La Salle Hotel would also probably be at the same level, and Leland Hotel could probably combined with the Main Arcade. Also possibly an article on the Joe Desimone Bridge and/or the Municipal Market Building that it originally led to, and which burned in the 1970s."

    The Souk

    The Souk is a spice shop at Pike Place Market in Seattle, Washington, United States.[1] The woman-owned[2][3] business has stocked dry spices, grains, canned goods, curry leaves and powder,[4][5] and gifts, primarily from the Middle East, North Africa,[6] and Asia.[7] Munir Qureshi is a co-owner.[8]
