THE SITE IS SURROUNDED BY THE CITY BUT HISTORICALLY DISCONNECTED FROM IT The site has been historically disconnected from its surroundings by the railway lines and the formerly polluted Besòs river. Now, the river is clean and has become the Besòs Fluvial Park. In the near future, the railway tracks will also be covered by the Sagrera Linear Park, the largest urban park of the city. Thus, former barriers become green joints.
