At the Meyer Turku shipyard in Turku, Finland, the largest glass and steel structure to ever be lifted onto a cruise ship was a days-long process that took months of planning. The installation also marked the next phase of work: building out the neighborhood’s restaurants, bars and the signature AquaTheater.
