Welcome to Citizen Bridge

Long ago, the center of city life and citizen prosperity was its waterways, and amongst many other forms of access, New Yorkers could move between Brooklyn and Governors Island on a sandbar at low tide. For many reasons, the waterways have shifted to the edges of life. More often today, the waterways are a site to see, a place to look at from a promenade; but as our climate becomes more unpredictable, they are also a source of stress and fear.

Citizen Bridge™ is a temporary bridge to reconnect New Yorkers to their waterways.

Our Project

Citizen Bridge is more than a structure; it’s a symbol of innovation and community effort. Designed to be a safe, sustainable, and scenic walkway, our bridge will provide a unique experience—walking on water! This project not only offers a new route for pedestrians but also a chance to engage with the marine environment in a direct and meaningful way.
