50 m
Scale anchored to a reviewed measurement
Uniform scaling uses one documented measurement; the visual contour is never deformed to fit a second axis.
Guggenheim Museum Bilbao (Current)
The Guggenheim Museum Bilbao is shown in its current permanent form: Frank Gehry's complex composition of titanium, limestone and glass. Vertical scale is tied to the documented 50 m central atrium; La Salve Bridge, the riverfront, pools and outdoor artworks are excluded.
