Monte Grande

Project

Within the territorial scope surrounding the Monte Grande train station, a study was conducted to identify urban challenges and propose solutions for reordering the city.

For each identified issue, a set of tools was proposed to implement the suggested changes, along with a management model to ensure sustainability.

The project aims to homogenize building heights by redefining maximum heights, giving greater prominence to the area around the station, supported by a series of policies to ensure their implementation. Additionally, a reorganization of activities and management methods is proposed to position Monte Grande as an attractive hub for the suggested activities.

The public space will be restructured by landscaping the area around the station and incorporating a cultural center managed jointly by the municipality and private entities.

Lastly, the proposal includes a network of bike paths, bicycle storage facilities, underpasses for trains, safe pedestrian bridges, and other measures to enhance urban connectivity.
