The most important concept of the project was the second phase in which three football pitches, a recreational square, large park areas with games for children, exclusive areas for pets, gymnasiums, gardens, cafes, bike routes, sports fields and large green spaces were delivered.
A NEW SYMBOL
Gran Malecón has become the symbol of all the tourist, commercial and business development that Barranquilla has
had. In addition, it has the Puerta de Oro fairgrounds for the most important cultural events in the region and the Caimán del Río, designed as the new gastronomic area of the city.
For Pedro Teixeira, CEO of Mota-Engil in Colombia, “with this work, Mota-Engil came through for Barranquilla.
We are very pleased to be able to fully deliver everything that was proposed in the initial project and even to exceed expectations. We are sure that this work will bring development, well-being
and quality of life to the people of Barranquilla, and will project the city as a tourist destination that will attract foreign investment for its development, innovation and sustainability”.
This recovery of the quality public space that Barranquilla deserved to have is appreciated by the community and is perhaps the most transcendental project for the city.
With this work, Mota Engil came through for Barranquilla. We are very pleased
to be able to fully deliver everything that was proposed in the initial project and even
to exceed expectations.
