The land bridge in Vancouver, Washington, dedicated in August 2008, marks a place where European and Indigenous cultures converged along the Columbia River. The 40-foot-wide pedestrian bridge arches over State Route 14, reconnecting the historic Fort Vancouver with the Klickitat trail. Once a gathering place and trading destination for Native peoples, Fort Vancouver continues to illustrate the complex confluence of cultures. Maya Lin worked with Cherokee-Choctaw architect John-Paul Jones to design the bridge. The Welcome Gate at the southern entrance of the site, designed by Native artist Lillian Pitt, is framed with two cedar canoe panels embellished with a cast-glass sculpture of a Chinook woman’s face. Indigenous plants of the region are placed along the land bridge, including grassland, white oak, chokecherry shrubs, dry prairie, nootka rose, and many more. Also included are metal Spirit Baskets with regional imagery and three significant overlooks detailed with descriptions in nine Indigenous languages. The art tells the story of the site’s significance to Native culture, bringing Native voices to the surface for the celebration of shared histories. The Vancouver installation provides an opportunity for visitors to be guided by their connection to the land, giving them a sense of the land they occupy.
