The proposed footbridge across the Charles River, which will be built at the foot of De Wolfe Street, about 300 yards downstream from the Weld Boathouse, and will connect the Business School with the University proper, is to be named the John W. Weeks Bridge in honor of the former Secretary of War. The University and the Commonwealth have received a gift from former business associates of Secretary Weeks and those who have since been admitted to the firm of which he was one of the founders, for the building of the bridge in commemoration of his achievements in behalf of the Commonwealth and the nation.
The bridge, which is designed by McKim, Mead and White, will be for foot traffic only, and will be erected by the Commonwealth in the near future.
