Jerusalem Chords Bridge

A new suspension bridge is built at the main entrance to Jerusalem, at the meeting point of Jaffa Road, Yermiyahu Street and Hertzel Boulevard. Its 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 new urban train scheduled to run above this busy intersection. The bridge is designed to be 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 will join Valencia, Seville, Lisbon, Lyon and other cities in the world proudly displaying Calatravas monumental designs.

View of the bridge in 2008 The Jerusalem Chords Bridge or Jerusalem Bridge of Strings (Hebrew: , Gesher HaMeitarim), also called the Jerusalem Light Rail Bridge is a cantilever spar cable-stayed bridge at the entrance to the city of Jerusalem, Israel, designed by the Spanish architect and engineer Santiago Calatrava. The bridge is used by Jerusalem Light Rail's Red Line, which began service on August 19, 2011. Incorporated in the structure is a glass-sided pedestrian bridge enabling pedestrians to cross from Kiryat Moshe to the Jerusalem Central Bus Station. The bridge, which cost about $70 million (NIS 246 million), was inaugurated on June 25, 2008.

Light Rail on Chords Bridge - Jerusalem


The Jerusalem Light Rail (Hebrew: , HaRakevet HaKala Birushalayim) is a light rail line, the first of several rapid transit lines planned in Jerusalem. Construction began in 2002 and ended in 2010, when the testing phase began. It was built by the CityPass consortium, which has a 30-year concession to operate it. Construction also involved building the Jerusalem Chords Bridge and various renovation projects around the city.

2008-2009, Technion Obelisk, monument on the Technion campus in Haifa, Israel


The renowned architect, Dr. Santiago Calatrava, has designed a giant kinetic obelisk that was erected in the center of the Technion campus and marking the estabilishment of the Russell Berrie Nanotechnology Institute on Technion.

Dr. Calatrava contributed the detailed designs of the impressive kinetic sculpture, and the Russell Berrie Foundation covered the cost of creating and erecting the obelisk. The obelisk, which rises to a height of 28 meters (100 feet), was erected on the main boulevard in the heart of the campus - near Ullman building. The kinetic sculpture, which is composed of 224 steel ribs (28 ribs on each one of its eight levels), rotates on its axis and is illuminated at night. A motor is installed on the top level, which rotates the main axis of the sculpture in an elliptical orbit. The movement creates a feeling of a synodic wave and the obelisk appears to breathe. Each rib completes a full rotation in about 20 seconds. Technion City in Haifa looks like a large park, stated Dr. Calatrava. The center of the campus - near Ullman building - is an important place. I designed this vertical kinetic sculpture, which integrates beauty with technique and mechanics, such that it can be seen from every place.

2005, Chords Pedestrian Bridge in Petach Tikva Israel


The bridge connecting the Avnat shopping mall and the Rabin Medical Center (Beilinson) in Petah Tikva. Santiago Calatrava's bridge, is a Y-shaped cable, stayed pedestrian bridge, connecting Rabin Hospital to a shopping mall, a residential development and a public park. The structure is supported from a 95-foot (29 m) high inclined steel pylon, which is situated where the three spans intersect. Light in construction, the bridge is built principally of steel with a glass-paved deck. Length / Main span: 120m / 75m

Cest la ville des Arts et des sciences Valence , Ma ville adoptive , ceci est mon petit hommage .

Nous commenons par lumbracle

Es un jardn cubierto por una estructura abierta de arcos metlicos

Plus haut que le btiment

Depuis lUmbracle, on apperoit le reste des Batiments depuis une hauteur suprieure .

Et il fait de beaux reflets dans leau

On voit le gigantisme du muse des sciences .

Presque un fossile prhistorique

A lintrieur un cinma imax avec cran dans la coupole de 180 ...

Quand on ouvre les semi-coupoles, cest trs spectaculaire

Et finalement le Palais des Arts est un btiment pour les concerts et opras .

Vu de ct , il parat tre un casque de gladiateur

Mais l , cest plutt une geule de requin!
