The book. “Bridges across the Albert Canal. A walk.”
“Building twenty-one generic bridges along the Albert Canal is an exceptional design task in the world of bridge building. The focus is not the unique bridge as an object, but the repetition of a series of structures and rhythm in which they appear. The cornerstone of this story is the Albert Canal itself, with the bridges as punctuation marks along the waterway”. Laurent Ney.
