Gardens of the San Francisco Plane
The objective is to value this space that occupies an approximate area of ​​5,200 m2 and constitutes one of the main entrances to the city of Murcia.
The proposed design should seek the renewal and improvement of the conditions of habitability, recreation and enjoyment, as well as the improvement of its pedestrian and visual connection with the rest of the city through its surrounding environment.
The proposal must go beyond a simple remodeling of a garden, it is about setting up a space that invites citizens to enjoy it, both as a passage area and as a stationary area.
Ceballos Square
Plaza Ceballos, located between Simón García street and Pintor Villacís street, is a pedestrian space of 360 m2.
The proposal for the renovation of this space should have as its main objective the recovery of the same for the pedestrian, as well as adapt aesthetically to the recently reformed environment.
Plaza between San Pedro Street and San Nicolás Street
At the intersection between San Pedro Street and San Nicolás Street, a triangular square of about 650 m2 is generated, which is mostly occupied by a loading and unloading area and by several containers.
The intervention will achieve a more friendly environment for the pedestrian.
Beautiful Square of Murcia
Located between the recently reformed Paseo Alfonso X El Sabio, Jaime I Street "El Conquistador" and Avenida de la Constitución, it is a standalone area with an area of ​​about 850 m2.
The proposed action must include all the necessary actions to update this square and its integration with the recently reformed urban space.
