Urban Elevators in Concepción Benítez
The old demands for urban accessibility of the Echavacoiz neighborhood with the rest of Pamplona was one of the main objectives of this project that also creates a pedestrian link with the University campus giving continuity to the upper promenade with the lower Elorz river walkway. A mixed intervention of ramps and elevators that ties marginal public spaces increasing the mobility of pedestrians and cyclists to endow the area with an element of identity.
The design is not only focused on the arrangement of two vertical communication elements and several walkways but also seeks to enhance the possibilities offered by former marginal terraces as a meeting point, as a community space where urban furniture and vegetation is arranged to integrate park and city.
