Whittle Arch in Coventry, United Kingdom, is an impressive modern architectural structure situated in the heart of the city near the Coventry Transport Museum. Named in honor of Sir Frank Whittle, the inventor of the jet engine, the arch was unveiled in 2003 as part of a major city center redevelopment project. The design features two sweeping, intertwining steel arches that create a striking visual landmark. The arches symbolize innovation and progress, reflecting Coventry's rich history in engineering and manufacturing.
