An elegant span of cast iron, the Bow Bridge stretches over Central Park’s Lake, leading to the bucolic Ramble. Just west of the Bethesda Fountain near 74th Street, the little 60-foot pedestrian bridge was designed by Calvert Vaux and Jacob Wrey Mould and was built in 1862. It’s a favorite of filmmakers—look for it in Manhattan and The Way We Were.
