800 W Main StThe Big Four walking bridge is one of my favorite spots in Louisville. You can walk, run, or bike across from Louisville to Jeffersonville, IN. There is music playing overhead and it is lit up at night in many different colors. There are some great restaurants on the Indiana side at the foot of the bridge.
