New Yorkers have voted the Bow Bridge as the most romantic spot in Manhattan's Central Park.
The story behind Bow Bridge…
- Named for its resemblance to a violinist’s or archer’s - or Cupid’s - bow, Bow Bridge’s dreamy setting over the sprawling Lake has inspired many a lovers’ stroll.
- Designed by Central Park co-designer Calvert Vaux and his assistant Jacob Wrey Mould and built in 1862, Bow Bridge is the second-oldest cast-iron bridge in the United States. The Bridge spans sixty feet across the Lake, linking the cultivated and flowering landscape of Cherry Hill with the rustic and sprawling woods of the Ramble.
- Bow Bridge is one of the most photographed spots in the Park and is provides the romantic backdrop for many wedding proposals and classic film shots.
