==Pedestrian Footbridge==
Located between the borough of '''Hyde Park''' and the borough of [[Leechburg, Pennsylvania|Leechburg]], the footbridge, locally known as ''"The Walking Bridge"'', is a suspension bridge that stretches 600 feet across the [[Kiskiminetas River]].  It is one of the longest pedestrian suspension footbridges in the United States, and one of the only pedestrian bridges to connect two counties, in this case, [[Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania|Westmoreland]] and [[Armstrong County, Pennsylvania|Armstrong]] counties.  The official name of the bridge is the Armstrong County Bridge #13.

The original wooden bridge was built in 1920 on old piers from a railroad bridge that was destroyed by flooding in the early 1900s.  The current metal bridge was built in 1955.
