The Stunning New Onda Atlántica Footbridge Reconnects City with Waterfront

Architizer Editors Architizer Editors

With the goal of developing its waterfront with recreational and leisure activities, the city of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria established a global urban strategy to again reconnect the Las Canteras beach with its Port Area. The new Onda Atlántica Footbridge, designed by onda arquitectura, is the first step in this new city development.

The pedestrian bridge spans 283 meters and dodges existing trees and infrastructure thanks to a unique undulating shape. As such, the bridge doubles as a large urban sculpture for the city, a structure to be admired as much as it is to be used.
