This was the fourth year we have gone to the Modern Phoenix home tour.  This year the tour focused on the east Phoenix mid-century modern neighborhood of Marion Estates near 44th St. and Camelback.  But it also stretched a bit beyond the boundaries of Marion Estates and included two Frank Lloyd Wright designed homes, a definite highlight of this years tour.  Frank Lloyd Wright wintered in Arizona and brought his entire school with him to Taliesin West each year.

This is part two of my Crossings series which features pedestrian bridges that cross the 51 Freeway in Phoenix, AZ.  Check out part one of the crossings series in case you missed it yesterday.

I got the idea for this series of photographs while driving on the 51 Freeway in Phoenix.  There are these pedestrian bridges that cross over the freeway every few miles.  The further north you go on the freeway the more “ornate” the bridges seem to become.  I ended up photographing three of the bridges so this is part one of three.  This particular bridge is just north of the Greenway exit.
