ASSABET RIVER LANDING

WEST CONCORD, MA

The Assabet River Bridge responds to West Concord’s need for a pedestrian walkway connecting two disparate parts of town--Baker Avenue Business Park to West Concord Village business district. The Assabet River Landing is an open plaza scheme that creates gathering zones as destinations of the bridge itself. Beyond serving as a connector, the bridge extends access to the landscape and recreation by providing a contemplative destination in a natural setting.
