South Beach to Welcome a New Pedestrian Bridge by 2026

Great news for residents and tourists who enjoy South Beach! The city just announced that a pedestrian walkway over Fifth Street will be constructed to add more flavor and fun to the beach. Once finalized, the bridge, titled “Walking In, Along and Under the Colors,” will not only enhance pedestrian access but also serve as a symbol of South Beach’s contemporary creative spirit.

This vibrant project connects the South of Fifth Baywalk with a recently completed park on 5th Street and is designed by renowned French artist Daniel Buren. Completion is anticipated by the summer or fall of 2026. BlaGirls are looking forward to this exciting addition to the city’s iconic landscape.
