The Watertown Bridge stretches over the Charles River and connects Watertown Square to Watertown Yard in Massachusetts. Built in 1907, it features pedestrian walkways on both sides and has a history of crossings dating back to 1641. The bridge offers a scenic spot with chances to see blue herons, geese, and turtles. If it looks familiar, it might be recognized from its appearance in the opening scene of the 1994 film The River Wild, featuring Meryl Streep rowing downstream beneath it.
