Designed by Frank Lloyd Wright, the R. W. Lindholm Service Station stands as the sole gas station crafted by the renowned architect. Erected in 1958, the station was conceived within the framework of Wright's vision for a transformative urban landscape. Adorned with a distinctive copper roof, its triangular canopy subtly directs attention towards the St. Louis River. Remarkably, the gas station remains in operation and holds architectural significance and functional longevity. Today, it serves as a living testament to Wright's enduring impact on architectural design.
Located off East Highway 210, the Swinging Bridge is set over the scenic St. Louis River and connects both sides of the river.

It is currently managed and maintained by the Civilian Conservation Corps. Locals and tourists can walk along the Swinging Bridge and revel in the picturesque views of the river and the surrounding woodlands.
