Visit to a metal-frame-supported tensile structure with PVC membrane.
At the riverfront we found an overlook area featuring a fan-shaped tensile fabric structure with PVC membrane, supported by a metal frame.
Our guide informed us that it had been designed as a performance shelter for summer concerts. "This custom nautical canopy measures 52 x 28 feet and soars 33 feet above the riverbank. Five steel masts support this landmark cantilevered structure," she stated. "Footage from a concert here was recently used in a Vaseline Intensive Care handlotion commercial."
