Bridge 5757, also known as the Fond du Lac Culvert, is a road bridge in the Fond du Lac neighborhood of Duluth, Minnesota. Built in 1937 to carry Minnesota State Highway 23 over Mission Creek, it is a double-span culvert of corrugated "multi-plate" iron with granite headwalls faced in gray, pink, and tan rubble stone. Its railings rise from the headwalls with narrow, lancet-like openings evoking late Gothic Revival design. Though it resembles New Deal work in the National Park Service Rustic style, it was designed by the Minnesota Department of Highways and built by a private contractor. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1998.
