The experience moves deliberately from street-level intimacy to the clean lines of marine approach and then to the expansive geometry of flight: a walking tour through architectural avenues and narrow Gothic lanes, a harbor crossing that repositions the city against the sea, and a helicopter lift that makes the city readable as a whole.
