Abstract Once constructed, the Baku White City pedestrian bridge will be a landmark for the newly developed White City district in the east of the Capital. Designed by UNStudio, the bridge crosses the highway of 8 th November Avenue and connects the newly build city to the seaside, forming a wide promenade. Due to the pending construction of the mall as future bridge support, the bridge had to be redesigned. A cantilevering viewing platform will highlight the bridge's ending. This paper covers the structural design of the architecturally shaped cable stayed bridge, supported through a 46 m high A‐shaped, slightly curved pylon. Based on 3‐D modelling in Rhino® and Grasshopper®, the FE‐software SOFISTIK® is used both for cable force finding and bridge design. The structural system, steel structure's specific detail for cable connection and its design approach have been documented.
