| Abstract: |
The Grand Large footbridge, located in the district of the same name in the city of Dunkirk, France, links the old industrial wasteland in the process of restructuring, to Malo-les-Bains, a seaside resort and touristic area of the town. Its silhouette with multiple tension rods blends with the maritime character of the site and its reasonable height does not over-shadow surrounding constructions. |
