Puente Bac de Roda bridge built by Santiago Calatrava aerial view Barcelona Catalonia Spain. The slender outline of the Bac de Roda Bridge, known locally as the Calatrava Bridge, marks the border between two districts of Barcelona city: Sant Andreu and Sant Martí. It was built between 1985 and 1987, at the crossroads of the Carrer Felip II and the Carrer Bac de Roda. The internationally renowned architect Santiago Calatrava created this bridge which became one of the landmarks of Barcelona before the Olympics. Calatrava designed the work in his characteristic style: curves, inspired by the lines of the human body, light colours and tensed cables on either side of a bridge adapted to vehicles as well as pedestrians. The beauty of the bridge earned it the 1987 FAD Architecture Prize.
