INFO:
The Zorrotzaurre project, in the city of Bilbao, is a major urban regeneration operation. As part of a comprehensive and sustainable plan, this phase recovers a deteriorated area next to the canal in order to convert it into a pedestrian path on the right bank of the Deusto canal. Port cities such as Bilbao have new ways of relating to their water fronts as a consequence of the relocation of industrial and logistical facilities far from their centres. This generates new opportunities for landscaping the fronts. The Zorrotzaurre project, in the city of Bilbao, is a major urban regeneration operation.
