A New Riverside Facade

Negative aspects in the present situation:

_Poor Lighting (it is a really dark place at night) that produces a feeling of insecurity

_Neglected landscape: the green areas are devastated and the place looks unattended.

_The connections with the city are unresolved. Many streets have a dead end in the connection with the park limits.

_Lack of urban furniture: there are almost no benches.

 

PROPOSAL:

_Exploit river landscape: Create a friendlier landscape combined with recreational use.

_Create the new facade of the city: Improve lighting to create a facade of suggestive city from across the river

_New recreational areas:   Public buildings (Museums) + Bars, Restaurants, Pubs (Perfect Area: Noise doesn’t bother anyone there) Shelters to protect people from the hard weather.

_Resolve conections whith the city: Offer the new space to the city more frankly.
