Old Chain of Rocks Bridge — photo spot in 10820 Riverview Dr, St. Louis, MO 63137, USA
Old Chain of Rocks Bridge
Long, riveted steel truss bridge with a unique 22° bend across the Mississippi—ideal for structural detail, wide river vistas, and Route 66 nostalgia. Photograph sweeping leading lines of the truss, river reflections, and St. Louis skyline from the north end. Best at sunrise or golden hour for warm side-lighting; blue hour highlights truss silhouettes against sky. Pedestrian access is open (no vehicle traffic), parking available near Riverview Dr/Chain of Rocks Park. Weekday mornings are quieter
