This project serves as a gateway to the border city of Naco, reducing road space to create pedestrian zones. It’s a public plaza where previously only the passage of the highway and the connection of streets existed. Now, this public center, with a covered market, a small outdoor forum, and a lookout point, slows down traffic, organizes the flow of cars, creates pedestrian crossings, and widens sidewalks so that the community gains space. The project consists of creating a small island that gives identity to the town and provides safe, well-lit public spaces.
