Built in 1912 this historic bridge plays an important part in the growth of the city. For a short time in the 1930's and 40s it was part of the iconic "Route 66" that stretched from Santa Monica to Chicago. Aside from a short closure and refurbishment after the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake, the bridge has been in operation for well over a century.

Duarte Bike Trail is a multi-purpose trail that was founded in 1977. It stretches 1.6 miles from Buena Vista Avenue to Royal Oaks Park at Vineyard Avenue. There are both a paved cycling path and a dirt jogging and equestrian trail. The path runs under shady oak trees with gentle slopes, and the trail follows the historic Pacific Electric Railway route, where you can spot an arched bridge that once carried Red Trolley Cars to Los Angeles. Great for biking, jogging, dog walking, or leisurely strolls, the trail includes amenities like parking, restrooms at Royal Oaks Park, drinking fountains, and a bike repair station at Vineyard Avenue. It’s open daily from dawn to dusk.

a park. with a snake shaped climbing thingy for the kids. It's right next to the Fletcher Drive bridge. There is also a cool skate park right next to this park.

The iconic Colorado Street Bridge was designed and built in 1912 at a total cost of $191,000 (equivalent to $4,875,259 in 2019). Designed by Kansas City, Missouri, firm Waddell & Harrington, the structure carries Colorado Boulevard (then called "Colorado Street"), the major east-west thoroughfare connecting Pasadena with Eagle Rock and Glendale to the west, and with Monrovia to the east. The Colorado Street Bridge replaced the small Scoville Bridge located near the bottom of the Arroyo Seco. The bridge follows a curved path so that the footings would sit on more solid ground than a straight bridge would have provided. The bridge spans 1,486 feet (453 m) at a maximum height of 150 feet (45 m) and is notable for its distinctive Beaux Arts arches, light standards, and railings. The bridge is on the National Register of Historic Places and has been designated a National Historic Civil Engineering Landmark by the American Society of Civil Engineers. During the early part of the twentieth century, the Colorado Street Bridge became known locally as "Suicide Bridge" after dozens of people leaped to their deaths.
