The Sidaway Bridge is located in Cleveland, Ohio.

The bridge is 680 feet long and 158 feet tall. In 2022 the bridge was added to the National Registration of Historical Places.

Building started in 1929 and the bridge opened in 1930.

During the 1966 riots it is believed that someone set fire to the bridge to seperate the whites from the blacks. Sad, because when we came to look at the bridge we got to talk to a man that told us some stories about riding his bike across the bridge to the chip factory. Awesome history with this bridge and town.

There are a few different places to get a view of the bridge, some places you can see better than others. Winter or spring would be the best view of the bridge.

You can get a good view with these corridence 41.479414, -81.644073. This is also another good view 41.480472, -81.641720. Both places you can walk right up to the end of the bridge depending on the growth. Enjoy your adventure finding the Sidaway Bridge on your next road trip through Cleveland, Ohio. Happy Travels 🙂
