Independencia Avenue

Starting from a central disposition in the city and from the pedestrian primacy along porches and sidewalks, the project had to create a pedestrian continuity between the two opposite point of each square. In the new design for the Independencia Avenue priority is given to pedestrian circulation, with no change in the grade and floor. Recuperation and joining of the pedestrian space that is duplicated thanks to two sidewalks with trees and a French “boulevard” section. And furthermore the current monuments are situated more central thanks to pedestrian spaces around them. The floor is basically made of white and gray granite. The trees disposition en Aragón Square works as a vegetal covered entrance. Linden is used together with pagoda tree and some coloured and perfumed tree as magnolia and mimosa. The three different types of street lights are an architectonic piece of the Avenue.
