WINONA BRIDGE

Visual Quality Review Committee Meeting

November 6, 2013

Aesthetic Lighting

Considerations and Discussion

• Historic Context and Cultural Resources
• Physical and Environmental Context
• What kind of nighttime image does the community want to convey?
• Who is the “audience” for the bridge? From where can the bridge be seen?
• Are there wildlife or environmental concerns?
• Are there vandalism concerns? Safety concerns, whether real or

perceived?

• How visible should the bridges be at night?
• How much ambient light is in this area?

What I heard at the last meeting

• Lighting should be subtle
• The two bridges should “act as one”
• Historic bridge is iconic
• Light Pollution is a concern
• Light the piers, preferably in a way that reveals them in a unique or

unexpected manner

• White light
• Washes of light
• Lots of river traffic during the summer
• Trying to be more of a tourist destination, for arts and river recreation

Considerations and Discussion

• Note bridge adjacencies
• Note above deck structure and view from new bridge
• Note that many piers are over land in areas where we want

pedestrians and bicyclists to feel welcome.

Aesthetic Lighting Concept A

NEW BRIDGE:

• WASH OF LIGHT ON FASCIA OF NEW

• WASH OF LIGHT ON OUTSIDE AND

INSIDE FACES OF MAIN SPANS PIERS.

• WASH OF LIGHT ON OUTSIDE FACES

OF ALL WINONA PIERS TRUSS BRIDGE:

• WASH OF LIGHT FROM TOPS OF

ANGLED MEMBERS DOWN ROADWAY-FACING SIDES OF “VERTICAL” ANGLED MEMBERS.

• WASH OF LIGHT ACROSS VERTICAL

FACES OF HORIZONTAL MEMBERS AT TOP OF TRUSS STRUCTURE.

• WASH OF LIGHT ON OUTSIDE FACES

OF MAIN SPAN AND WINONA PIERS.
