If you are a fan of Limp Bizkit, Fred Durst mentions Mathews Bridge in the song "My Generation."…read moreThe exact verse goes "if only we could fly/Limp Bizcuit style/John Otto/Take 'em to the Mathews Bridge/Can you feel it?/My g-g-generation/Get up, my g-g-generation/Are you ready?" In case you are wondering who John Otto is, it is really not a hidden meaning or some historical reference, John Otto is the drummer of Limp Bizkit. Yes, Limp Bizkit is a Jacksonville, Florida and I am sure have traversed Mathews Bridge many times. Mathews Bridge spans the St. Johns River and was built back in 1953. The Bridge is named after John E. Mathews, who was a Florida state legislator and Chief Justice of the 1955 Florida Supreme Court. A cool side note, the bridge was originally silver, but in 1984 the Bridge was painted maroon to commemorate the Jacksonville Bulls of the United States Football League being formed in Jacksonville, Florida. This bridge offers a good view and is definitely a part of Jacksonville lore and a definitive part of its landscape.

This bridge offers views of the Hart Bridge off to the south. I have been lucky enough to fly over this bridge in a helicopter! Fabulous views! Going from downtown- this bridge connects to the Arlington Expressway and eventually turns into Atlantic- 115, and parents live off Atlantic. I love traveling this bridge at night with the city lit up~ the lights of the bridges glittering against the water. Just my fav! I confess- being stuck int traffic on this bridge sucks! Now that I live here, I rarely use this bridge! Except for events- football games and concerts.

An eternal flame is on top and the wall contains the names of officers killed here in the past starting with Marshal John Yeomans in 1840. It is a lovely wall and beautifully done. Just last year (in 2018) three new statues were added. Two of the new statues stand on both sides of the wall, and the third statue kneels before it placing a red rose near the blue line that surrounds it. It is very moving and it allows us all to remember those who serve and protect. The uncertainty our law enforcement officers face every day shouldn't be dismissed. Simply put...they keep us safe...let us not forget... Note 1: Please see this website for more information of the fallen - https://www.odmp.org/agency/1852-jacksonville-sheriffs-office-florida Note 2: To visit the memorial...there are parking spaces in front of and nearby with meters.

I love it, not just for its little slice of history, but for the air of tranquility when strolling through.
