Description
Puente del Matedero is a pedestrian bridge with a vaulted ceiling decorated with recycle glass mosaics depicting local residents. The bridges are located in a refurbished area of ecological development in the south of Madrid along the Manzanares River. Madrid is known all around the world for many things; its river, however, has never been one of them. Inaugurated in April of 2011, Madrid Rio is a new park that runs the length of the urban stretch of the Manzanares River. The park was made possible when the city's inner beltway, the M-30, was moved from the banks of the river into tunnels constructed beneath the riverbed. The space has since been exploited in a number of ways for everyone's enjoyment.
