Seville recovers an important riverside

New York's Dock in Seville

The architects of the works in New York’s Dock in Guadalquivir River are building an alameda with alamos and orange trees like it was in the first part of the twentieth century, with flowers, kiosks, viewpoints and comfortable access. It will have a cultural way even: different shows and expositions could be shown explaining the history of this side of the river.

These works will end at the end of this year and then the touristic adecuation will begin. The aim is that the pedestrian wins a central area that was lost. For this, the project has stairs and balconies inviting to walk by the side of the river, full of trees and flowers. This project will allow the riverside walk from Delicias’ Dock until Torneo street.

One of the positive sides of this project is the recovery of the wall and the brick seats of Delicias’ Walk, built for the Iberoamerican Exposition of 1929. For this, the bricks have been reproduced faithfully from the bricks of 1929, the original ones from Triana.

In the walk, there will be a permanent stage with seats for theatre, concerts and different public acts. With this adecuation, it will be connected New York’s Dock with Marques de Contadero’s Walk (where Torre del Oro is placed) and Maria Luisa’s Park.
