The bridge is a U-shaped cantilever design, jutting out over 70 feet from the edge of the canyon. It is the brainchild of entrepreneur David Jin, whose vision for the bridge was turned into reality with the assistance of architect Mark Ross Johnson. The Skywalk Bridge was commissioned by the Hualapai Indian tribe and built at Eagle Point on the Grand Canyon West Rim. Since March, 2007 visitors to the Grand Canyon have been given a unique perspective of its magnificence. No Grand Canyon visitor can pinpoint that one perfect place to see and “feel” the canyon’s fullness.
