St. Anthony Parkway Bridge

Highlight • Viewpoint

The St. Anthony Parkway Bridge crosses over the busy BNSF Northtown Rail Yard. Originally built in 1925 as a five-span Warren truss bridge, it was replaced in 2016 with a modern steel truss structure that honors its historic predecessor. Today, the bridge includes an interpretive plaza with preserved truss elements and great views of the rail yard, providing an insight into the area's industrial history.

Brownie Lake

Highlight • Lake

Named after the nickname of the landowner in the late 1800s, this lake is the smallest in the chain of lakes in the area. It features a walking and biking trail, and kayaking and canoeing are allowed, but it is off-limits to motorized watercraft, making it a more peaceful destination for hiking and water activities.

Bassett Creek Outflow (historic)

Highlight • River

Bassett Creek is an ancient water catchment that flows 12 miles from its source at Plymouth's Medicine Lake, meandering through golf courses, parks and backyards in the western suburbs. However, once the creek reaches the city, it quickly vanishes into a vast tunnel that travels deep underground until it reaches its outlet, about 75 feet east of the West River Parkway Trail through the Bassett Creek Tunnel, a stone arch culvert built back in 1890.
