Real Estate listings near BDI Bridge

The Elm Park Bridge, sometimes locally referred to as The BDI Bridge or The Ice Cream Bridge, is a bridge across the Red River in Winnipeg, Manitoba. The bridge links Kingston Crescent with the Jubilee/Osborne area, a Winnipeg community across the Red River. The BDI Bridge nickname is derived from the nearby Bridge Drive-In (BDI), a popular ice cream vendor. The BDI itself is so-named because of its proximity to the Elm Park Bridge. It was built in 1912 and it was open to two-way vehicular traffic. The deck of the bridge is only 15 feet wide but even the large cars of the early 1960s passed each other. In 1974, it was closed to vehicular traffic, and is a common bridge for foot traffic to the BDI in summer.
