Building an Impossible City
Building an Impossible City | Venice: Engineered on a Forest of Piles | FD Engineering Venice, one of the world's most beautiful cities, was born of a peculiar idea: the desire to build a city in the middle of the water. Emerging 1,500 years ago out of the mud of a marshy lagoon, Venice has managed to rise above the sea’s challenges ever since. The city’s founders knew what they were doing: the water’s relentless threat is also the source of the city’s fortune and worldwide influence.
