Guardians Of Hope Memorial Bridge Mug

Heading into downtown Cleveland, the Guardians Of Traffic Statue Stands 43 feet tall above the Hope Memorial Bridge in downtown Cleveland, Ohio. The Hope Memorial Bridge, which spans across the Cuyahoga River, was built in 1932. Two towering pylons flank each side of the bridge with winged figure statues carved from Berea sandstone by the Ohio Cut Stone Company in Little Italy. Each guardian holds a different vehicle in his hand, representing the history of ground transport.
