BIRD ISLAND – PORT 2000, FRANCE Compensation measures: Built as a
bird habitat for the port extension of
Le Havre, France
Strict design requirements to ensure
the site met the needs of the various bird populations (extremely complex geometry to accommodate different species and their breeding habits)
From Boskalis Engineering PDF.
I enjoyed this one, spent too much time in the Persian Gulf though. Interestingly the current photo of Bird Island is from 2007, there are several since then in the history layer showing further vegetation and erosion. Good one Charley!
