The Skybridge is a recent, 8-million dollar addition to downtown Davenport. It’s a 4-story, 100-yard long fancy glass and metal structure that goes nowhere, basically. It allows pedestrians to cross over River Drive and get a nice view and be bathed in pulses of different colored light that zoom down the walkway overhead. On the river side is tacky riverboat casino. On the other side is a parking garage and the River Music Experience museum.
Well, at least it was a nice place to take more photos of myself. hah.

Wow, it is certainly not looking like typical Davenport winter weather there. I didn’t realize you could see the bridge lights during the day. Marvelous.

man, Larry (and the Quad City Times) always told me that this was a bridge to nowhere, so other than a remote talking heads relationship (yeah, I realize that’s a road, but hey, it is close), I never thought it was worth seeing. But then you show me the trippy colors, and I say dad gum! I missed out. Gol darrnit!
