Penobscot Narrows Bridge Observatory Opening Tomorrow

PROSPECT - The Penobscot Narrows Bridge Observatory, the tallest public bridge observatory in the world, will open for the season tomorrow. The observatory will be open from 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. daily. The final elevator ride to the top departs at 5:30 p.m.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, visitors will be required to wear masks. No more than two household groups (totaling no more than eight people) will be permitted on the observatory level at a time in order to facilitate social distancing.

We're happy to be able to open this attraction to the public in a manner that works to preserve public health and safety.
