CHIHULY Bridge of Glass - Crystal Towers
chihuly,glass,tacoma,
Mid-point on the Glass Bridge are the Crystal Towers, an installation rising 40 feet above the bridge. Another work by hometown artist, Dale Chihuly, the towers are illuminated from below, the forms glow at night to serve as beacons of light for the bridge and Tacoma.
The 63 large crystals in each tower are made from Polyvitro, a polyurethane material developed to withstand the elements. The Crystal Tower’s design elements have been described as “raw, brutal forms, monumental and bold, that appear as if cut from mountain peaks or taken from frozen alpine lakes”.
