Maritime Exploration
Based on our success in Bristol, Arc's team is tentatively exploring other cities - exciting! A maritime theme is emerging - after all, cities almost always begin where roads cross waterways, since carrying heavy loads by boat was far easier than over land. Last week, we had an enthusiastic welcome in Brussels, meeting lots of people from their vibrant tourism industry in a whirlwind exploration of the city. Footsore and weary, we came home with the strong impression that Brussel's canal area, built parallel to the River Senne to carry barges from the North Sea at Antwerp, is beckoning.
