Lincoln School Harbor cam

This location from atop the Lincoln Park Middle School in Duluth offers a unique panoramic view of the Western Duluth Harbor. The Saint Louis River, the largest U.S. river flowing into Lake Superior, is a key feature of West Duluth. It exhibits diverse landscapes from marshy estuaries to forested banks upstream, hosting a variety of wildlife. Historically, it has been an industrial hub, supporting sectors like steel production, shipping, lumber, paper manufacturing and other natural resouces. Significant bridges, including the John A. Blatnik Bridge and the Bong Bridge, span the river, connecting Duluth and Superior. The river remains a vital natural resource and a symbol of resilience for West Duluth. Many thanks to the many viewers who donated to this project and to the Duluth School District 709 who made this location possible.
