Emirates Air Line - Wilkinson Eyre Architects
A kilometre-long cable car designed by British architects Wilkinson Eyre has opened over the River Thames.
Suspended 90 metres above the water, the 34 cars connect the O2 arena on the Greenwich Peninsula with the Excel Centre at the Royal Docks, which will be the venue for a number of indoor events at this summer’s Olympic games.
Three twisting towers will hold the cables in places, while two glazed terminals are located on either side of the river.
