Bridge Wednesday - Memorial Park

Memorial Park, Mt. Pleasant, SC  © Doug Hickok



Mount Pleasant's Memorial Park, as seen in this dawn image, sits at the base of the Ravenel Bridge. The public space offers a long fishing pier that extends into the Cooper River, a large expanse of lawn for outdoor events, a restaurant, and a colorful playground for children (and parents).

    Beautiful Doug! That blue sky paired with the lighted steel goes so well together.

    Interesting that the area under the bridge is so well developed, will you show the pictures of the pier also?

    The pier looks like a nice place for promenade. I would spend an evening there:)

    I love it when space around and under bridges is constructed by cities for public parks.

    Nice use of the blue hours. I like this. Amazes me how high those supports are on bridges. That's just crazy.
