Abstrait: Urban renewal projects focus usually on unused harbors and docklands to transform these neglected areas into attractive urban waterfronts. The most prominent elements of modern waterfronts are bridges. There is a relation between bridge and urban development along the water and without the conceptual link between them – and integration - a successful waterfront cannot be achieved. Aesthetics of pedestrian bridges is particularly important since people are in direct contact with these structures and often the bridges become the symbols of places that have a deep meaning in human minds. This paper introduces aesthetic factors of footbridges and reflects on their meaning. The examples of footbridges at the waterfronts include historical and park bridges upon the waters and bridges the sea-side waterfronts as well, as at the riverfronts. The examined bridges are mostly in Asia (Japan, China and Korea), but there are also examples of bridges in Europe and Australia. The conclusion is that footbridges that are enjoying renaissance and waterfronts influence each other and when bridges are planned with aesthetical considerations and integrated well with their settings, they can greatly enrich the structured landscape in the cities.
