Focus Area Interventions

CIUDAD NUEVA

Existing Conditions Ciudad Nueva is a prosperous commercial area south of Ruta 2 that is developing very quickly. The development in the area consists of low-rise buildings, and can be classified as low-rise sprawl. Within Ciudad Nueva, the specific focus of our interventions is at the intersection of Avenida San Jose and Julio Cesar Riquelme. Currently, the medians that

run along the avenues approaching the intersection are quite narrow and frequently occupied by vendors and vehicles. In addition, angled street parking is common in this section of the city and flooding is a persistent problem.
