(ANSA) - GENOA, APRIL 27 - "It is an important moment, but it cannot be a party because one must never forget from what is born. From a terrible tragedy". Renzo Piano told ANSA on the day of the start of the launch of the last bridge deck he designed. "Satisfied? No, let's say that this work is consoling. It is consoling to see that we managed to build it." There will be no plan tomorrow: "I am a prisoner in Paris, where I live in quarantine, and I haven't seen the bridge for two months". "It is consoling to see that this work was born of a great collective effort. It is comforting to see that it was possible to achieve it in a very short time. I participated substantially only by defending a very clear and simple idea, very Genoese. That of a bridge that crosses the valley asking permission because it is not impactful ". "He asks for permission but it is very strong. The piece that goes up tomorrow and that closes the deck weighs almost a thousand tons." "You have to be proud, but not me as an architect, all for the collective work.
