Laguna Garzón Bridge
Puente de la Laguna Garzón
A ring-shaped bridge designed by Uruguayan architect Rafael Viñoly, spanning Garzón Lagoon in a distinctive form.
The Garzón Lagoon Bridge opened in 2015 and was designed by New York architect Rafael Viñoly. Its deck forms a complete ring. Vehicles travel halfway around it in one direction to cross the lagoon, with water in the middle, a design meant to slow traffic and let drivers enjoy the lagoon scenery. A walkway on the inside of the ring lets you stroll and take photos, and the lagoon is good for birdwatching and stand-up paddleboarding. It is about 8 km east of José Ignacio.
