The UAB 13th Street pedestrian bridge in February 2019

The UAB 13th Street pedestrian bridge is a arch-shaped reinforced concrete pedestrian bridge over University Boulevard just west of 13th Street South. It was constructed in 1975.

The southern end of the bridge was removed and incorporated into the construction of the UAB 12th Street Parking Deck.

In 2019 a mural, entitled "Flourish" was painted on part of the east inside wall of the bridge to commemorate the university's 50th anniversary. UAB University Relations commissioned the artwork, which was designed by art student Sara Wood and executed by students in Doug Barrett's "Bloom Studio".
