Seven Bridges Road is located in city park lands known as Amity Park, and runs alongside Amity Creek. As the creek meanders along it crosses under the road in seven locations. Thus Seven Bridges Road. In all, eight bridges had rehabilitation work done, the eighth where Seven Bridges Road intersects with East Skyline Parkway.

This City of Duluth project utilized traditional stone masonry techniques to restore these historic structures, built in 1912. Loose and fallen stone was salvaged and reused, and missing stone was replaced with locally quarried stones and granite cap stones. This was done to maintain, as much as possible, the bridges original appearance. These were early DCP projects that utilized Federal, State Aid Bridge Bond, and Local funding.
