Thank you, it got 2100 views and 117 favs. That is probably more than all my other photos on Flickr combined and I've been on Flickr since 2006.

Very nice!

I visited Grand Rapids a few years ago for a conference. Wonderful city....had a great time. If was fall, the leaves were changing....had a great stroll along that very river.

Thank you, that is why they call it The Blue Bridge. It also painted blue as well.
