Why Viña del Mar, Valdivia, Antofagasta and La Serena banks have consolidated and our city?

The redevelopment of the former Railway Station is the center of the future Civic District. Have two places: the place Spain and the Bicentennial Plaza, overlooking the river Bio Bio.

By Nello Rolleri V.

sector is the city where more has been invested in the past 15 years, over 100 million dollars, but the less looks. Despite its beauty
Biobío natural river, the Coast is now a place that penquista shun them as unsafe, where there are many acres of camps, debris and trash. Concepción
Comparing with other cities with sea or river banks, such as Antofagasta, La Serena, Viña del Mar y Valdivia, shows that we have taken great advantage and that ours is the only city that appears unfinished, unfunded.
What happened in Concepción in 15 years we have not been able to finish the North Bank project? The approach was developed by architect Waldo Martínez, on behalf of the Chilean Chamber day in a recent analysis of urban development that took place in the municipality.
His questioning was also shared by other academics from the Universities of Concepción, Development and the U.
Bío-Bío.
The dean of the Faculty of Architecture at the U. Development, Victor Fierro Lobos, also opined that "the North Shore program needs a reboot, an improvement of its management. This great idea is to relaunch Conception. " Even
own North Shore coordinator under President Frei Ruiz-Tagle, now professor at the U. Bío Bío, Juan Pablo Gramsh, echoed the approach and speculated that "today the program moves by inertia" and it is necessary re-invest in stronger form in this area.

departed with strength, but weakened

The project started strongly in 1994, recalled Waldo Martinez, Llacolén Bridge construction and the Ocean Drive, fills that allowed the construction of 1,400 social housing and the first phase of Waterfront Park.
Next came New Prat Avenue and construction of the Civic District, which already has completed the first stage with the building of the MOP and is finishing the renovation of the former Railway Station to the town hall.
However, said that initial impulse, even when held, with each passing year has less force, "has been weakened."
In his view, governments have been changing and with them the priorities of urban development that has focused on other cities and have been leaving behind Conception.
asked to compare the investment is now running in Valparaíso-Viña del Mar to bury the railroad, with the slow progress that has been the same idea in the Coastal penquista.
"Missing so little to realize this goal" of bringing the city to the river Bio-Bio, and emphasized that "if not revitalize the North Shore, the only ones to lose us."

More construction but not to the river
One of the elements of urban development that was highlighted penquista architects participating in the meeting was that the town of Concepción had retaken the lead in construction growth, measured in number of permits issued, making move to San Pedro de la Paz and Chigwell who had taken the lead for a decade.
Waldo Martinez said that is already evident with the figures for building permits in the first half of 2006 and ensures that the trend will deepen when comparing the full year. That growth
60% of the surface corresponds to departments, what they think is twice as commendable, because it means the plan of redoubling the center is paying off. Limit


However, this growth is concentrated in a few blocks near the Cerro Caracol and none had crossed the boundary of the railway toward the river Bio Bio.
The regional president of the College of Architects, Claudia Garcia-Lima, said that will mean increasing pressure for the use of Ecuador Park, which has collapsed over the weekend. He said this is a serious problem of access to green areas. He mentioned the case of the Coast Park that the community does not use it because they think you have problems with crime, while other parks do not have safe pedestrian or vehicular access, as coastal Andalién river. Requested
MOP consider this problem in the remodeling of the roundabout Bonilla to be implemented during the next year.
