Architecture of the Gorge

2007.11.15
Multnomah Falls Lodge. Over 2 million people visit this lodge and the associated falls every year.

We loved this neat old bridge that spanned Latourell creek near the falls

Foot bridge to Bridal Veil Falls

Vista house overlooking the Columbia River. 300mm @ f8

The Vista house was constructed in 1916 as a haven of refreshment for weary travelers. Its octagonal shape, and copper dome make this a wonderful piece of architecture.

These are a few of the bridges and buildings around the falls that we've posted the past few days.

For anyone interested in the waterfalls, they were Bridal Veil Falls, Latourell Falls, and the most well known fall in the region Multnomah Falls

dweiskir I've always wanted to visit the northwest, and now I have specific areas in mind.

Awesome shots, as always. I really love the Vista house.
