About

Durango’s urban fabric has been divided by the railway the last 130 years. The city shows 4 negative aspects: wall effect, morphologically non completed urban pattern, degradation of the city and pauses in traffic and pedestrians’ flows. Since December 17th, 2012 the train goes underground. Now the city has a unique opportunity thanks to the recovered surfaces to meet the needs of its inhabitants. But there is not a plan to explit this situation. The local municipality has always focused on the large area situated in the center. But they have forgotten the rest of the city. So my project aims to develop a plan for all the new axis that helps to unite the north and south parts of the city. Afterwords, one of the pioneer buildings, that will secure the urban concepts applied, is developed. Cities have traditionally been a stack of layers that have been consolidating slowly. This project aims to mimic these processes. Therefore, the project is developed in phases.
