<p style="text-align: justify;">The project is based on the idea of assimilating the form of the structure to the two differents levels of the river bank. The main structure is in <a href="http://www.bridges4all.com/archives/tag/steel" rel="external">steel</a>, although the upper decks are constructed in <a href="http://www.bridges4all.com/archives/tag/timber" rel="external">timber</a>.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Crossing the <a href="http://www.bridges4all.com/archives/tag/seine" rel="external">Seine</a> with a single span and no piers, this <a href="http://www.bridges4all.com/archives/tag/metallic" rel="external">metallic</a> bridge is architecturally unique and covered in exotic trees (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tabebuia"title="Tabebuia"  rel="external">Tabebuias</a>, a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brazil"title="Brazil"  rel="external">Brazilian</a> tree also used for outdoor flooring at the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biblioth%C3%A8que_nationale_de_France"title="Bibliothèque nationale de France"  rel="external">Bibliothèque nationale de France</a>) which gives it a light and warm appearance. Its solidity is, however, never in doubt &#8211; at either end, its foundations are in the form of concrete pillars extending 15m into the ground, and the structure itself is made up of six 150 tonne components built by the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eiffel_(company)"title="Eiffel (company)"  rel="external">Eiffel</a> engineering company, <em><a href="http://www.puentemania.com/archives/tag/eiffel" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Entradas etiquetadas con Eiffel">Eiffel</a> Constructions métalliques</em>. Its innovative architecture brought <a href="http://www.puentemania.com/archives/tag/marc-mimram" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Entradas etiquetadas con Marc Mimram">Marc Mimram</a> the award &#8220;<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prix_de_l%27%C3%89querre_d%27Argent"title="Prix de l'Équerre d'Argent"  rel="external">Prix de l&#8217;Équerre d&#8217;Argent</a>&#8221; for the year <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1999"title="1999"  rel="external">1999</a>.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"> </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">El primer <a href="http://www.bridges4all.com/archives/tag/puente" rel="external">puente</a> que se recuerda en la zona se inauguró en <a href="http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/1861"title="1861"  rel="external">1861</a> por <a href="http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Napoleon_III"class="mw-redirect" title="Napoleon III"  rel="external">Napoleon III</a>. Era un puente de <a href="http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hierro_fundido"title="Hierro fundido"  rel="external">hierro fundido</a> construido por los mismos ingenieros que realizaron el<a href="http://es.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Puente_de_los_Inv%C3%A1lidos&amp;action=edit&amp;redlink=1"class="new" title="Puente de los Inválidos (aún no redactado)"  rel="external">Puente de los Inválidos</a>. La obra recibió inicialmente el nombre de <a href="http://www.bridges4all.com/archives/tag/puente" rel="external">Puente</a> de Solférino recordando la <a href="http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Batalla_de_Solferino"title="Batalla de Solferino"  rel="external">batalla de Solferino</a>. Dañado por el impacto de diversos barcos en su estructura el <a href="http://www.bridges4all.com/archives/tag/puente" rel="external">puente</a> es demolido y sustituido por una <a href="http://www.bridges4all.com/archives/tag/pasarela" rel="external">pasarela</a> peatonal en <a href="http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/1961"title="1961"  rel="external">1961</a>. En<a href="http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/1992"title="1992"  rel="external">1992</a> es demolida por segunda vez.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Vuelve a ser reconstruida entre <a href="http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/1997"title="1997"  rel="external">1997</a> y <a href="http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/1999"title="1999"  rel="external">1999</a> bajo la dirección del arquitecto <a href="http://www.bridges4all.com/archives/tag/marc-mimram" rel="external">Marc Mimram</a> quién sería premiado con la <em>Équerre d&#8217;argent</em> (escuadra de plata) 1999 por su trabajo.

<p>The total length of the bridge is 168 meters, the width is 33m, containing a 21 m roadway. <br />
The structure consists of three arches of reinforced concrete vaults, with lengths of 36 m, 42 m and 36 m spans.  Piers and arcs are covered with a quarried stone facing with the intent purpose of blending in with the Louvre.  On the bank on both sides of the bridge, four decorated pylons support a telescopic lighting system that is able to raise the lamps from a height of 13 m (day) to 20 m (night) &#8211; this mechanism currently is unserviceable. This system was designed by the ironworker Raymond Subes and installed in 1946.</p>
