2 Bridges _ Built Event 2

The 2 BRIDGES, as a Built_Event, are a spatial redundancy: the one has replaced the other. The construction of the concrete bridge has turned the metal bridge into a ruin. In the post-digital era, the bridge leads to the concept of a link and to the aspatial attachment that the link connotes. The highway bridge calls to mind this “non local” juncture. Moreover, the old metal bridge was erected by army engineers and therefore introduces the theme of war and of the army’s social presence into the area. A large army camp is located next to the two bridges and the Maleme military airport is visible to the north-east.
