Insulation Lethbridge loves to help pass along information as to what has contributed to the history of Lethbridge, Alberta. The City of Lethbridge has many notable objects that deserve special mention. Below are only a few of the special landmarks that give Lethbridge its unique history.

The High Level Bridge

Coalbanks Crossing Pedestrian Bridge
Pedestrians and Cyclists can now enjoy safe access across the Oldman River while enjoying a breathtaking view of the rivervalley. Built in 2003, this walking bridge crosses over the Oldman River and runs parallel to Whoop-Up Drive (connecting the South and West sides of Lethbridge).

The Old Water Tower
Built in 1958 the old water tower held a capacity of 300,000 Gallons or 1,135,620 Litres. In 2003 it was sold to a developer who turned it into a restaurant.

Giant Wind Gauge
This was a centennial project funded by the Royal Canadian Legion. It is located on Scenic Drive the corner of Mayor Magrath Drive South (in the tourist information parking lot). Lethbridge is one of the sunniest and warmest cities in Canada but it is also the frequent beneficiary of a phenomenon called the Chinook, a warm west wind providing above freezing breaks throughout the winter season.

Stone Sculpture
A local artist Ms. Daryl Civitarese proposed to supply a sculpture which would promote rock sculpture in the area. The sculpture “Generations Celebrating Families” is a grandfather carrying his grandchild on his shoulders.
