Follow on Google News | Photo Documentation of Jerusalem "Chords Bridge"Jerusalem photographer offers a wide-scale and diverse gallery of images of Santiago Calatrava designed suspension bridge in Israel capital.
Located at the main entrance to Jerusalem, at the meeting point of Jaffa Road, Yermiyahu Street and Hertzel Boulevard, it’s not planned to be just a bridge - it will be a monument. Internationally acclaimed Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava was commissioned to design an artistic and practical solution for the urban light train scheduled to run above this busy intersection. The bridge is supported by an inclined central column, 130 meters high, with 150 meter long, white, suspension cables supporting a 380 meter long semi-circle on which the train will travel. Jerusalem has joined Valencia, Seville, Lisbon, Lyon and other cities in the world proudly displaying Calatrava’s monumental designs. Jerusalem photographer Nir Alon documented stages of construction throughout the project and now offers what is probably the most wide-scale and diverse collection of images for licensing displayed on his web site at http://imagesofmythoughts.com/ End
