a nearly 400-foot-long linear structure off the coast of France [...] it measures roughly 66 feet wide at the base and stands roughly 7 feet tall

Sounds more like a jetty or causeway than a wall.

I don’t think they airplanes that long ago.

La Jette?

I’m a bit disappointed all we have is one bad picture.

The article has linked to the paper, which has 21 photos and a bunch of maps and diagrams.

Awesome! I missed that, thank you :)
