Expanding the greenspace and passive recreational areas of Riverfront Park, the Noisette Creek Pedestrian Bridge connects the existing park to the north side of Noisette Creek as part of the overall vision for the community development.
The combination of hot-dip galvanizing and powder coating created a duplex system, combined with stainless steel cabling will provide a beautiful, low (or no) maintenance solution for the cabling system in a temperate marine environment.
Designed by Thomas & Hutton, the Noisette Creek bridge in North Charleston, SC has been named by Architectural Digest as one of the 11 most beautiful elevated walkways through nature in the entire world. The meandering bridge was constructed as a place for people to enjoy the natural environment and the expansive water views while providing additional pedestrian access to the Riverfront Park. The curved pedestrian bridge includes a viewing platform at the midpoint across the bridge with a unique curved planter and bench.
The signature Keuka Style curved cable railing system was a natural choice for this bridge project since the curves of the posts complement the curves of the architecture. The posts are made to a 42" height and are surface mounted to the walkway and viewing platform. The posts were hot-dip galvanized for corrosion protection as Noisette Creek is a tributary to Cooper River, a brackish estuary to the Atlantic Ocean in North Charleston, NC. The were finished with an oil bronze super durable powder coating for aesthetics.
