The Noblesville Bridge of Flowers’ Donors roster continues to grow, enabling this community project to serve as an ever-expanding source of beauty and belonging.
As of Wednesday, Duke Energy became the latest donor to the Bridge of Flowers. By donating $5,000 to the non-profit that connects events at Federal Hill Commons with shopping and dining on the town Square via the Logan Street Bridge over a scenic bend of the White River, Duke will be recognized with a Diamond-level plaque at the Logan Street Bridge site.

Inspired by the travels of philanthropist board members Sylvia Gordon and her father Dick Gordon and brought to vibrant life by fellow board members Peg Adams and Dave Riddle and their cohort of volunteers, this Hamilton County destination beckons visitors to Noblesville and all the activities and beauty it has to offer.
“When you donate to the Bridge of Flowers, it makes you feel good and the Bridge look good!” Dick Gordon said.
To date, over $160,000 has been raised by businesses and individuals to establish and maintain this incredible addition to Noblesville that promises to be a self-perpetuating point of pride for all. No taxpayer money is used to support the flowers.
To get involved, citizens are encouraged to send tax-deductible donations to the Bridge of Flowers, 20236 Hague Road, Noblesville, IN 46062.
